I was fortunate enough to get a Steinberg UR44 to replace my failed MOTU system this summer. And while I have gone from 24 inputs to just 6, I am happy with the device. I am downsizing and so this made sense. I did look into the UR 22 and UR242, but I still wanted to use my 24 channel board, so I can feed it into inputs 5-6 and extend by range to 28 ins if needed. (but I will probably sell off the board as my gigs have changed a lot).
If you are wondering about the quality, it is excellent, sound is clear and noiseless. I have several DAWs, on my dual core Win7 (7 years old) machine i was able to record at 192/24 with two inputs, no struggling on the machine's part. On my quad-core it is quite the same or better. I have yet to record all inputs simultaneously, no fears though, as I usually track at 24/96 or 24/44. Latency is not an issue, I am primarily a keyboardist, with loads of CPU hungry VSTs, the interface offers latency free monitoring (hardware) which works well, but I dont need it really, the turnaround time is fine with the PC.
I would recommend this interface, it also comes with Cubase AI 8, which works well enough for music construction. I have 8 Pro, so that's what I am usually connected to.
Hope this helps anyone doing research. regards - R :top2
