Steinberg UR-RT2 USB Audio Interface Review / Test
Today I review, the cheapest piece of “Neve” gear on the market. This is the brand new Steinberg UR-RT2 USB Audio Interface, which has 2 mic pre’s with switchable Rupert Neve Transformers, +60dB of mic gain, and a 24-bit 192kHz Analog to Digital converter. I think this thing sounds great, but I only think musicians will really get a benefit from the Neve transformers. Voice over artists, should probably look somewhere else for a cheaper options.
CORRECTION: When I say "the Neve transformers add Distortion, I mean Saturation."

FOCUS
focusrite-scarlett-2i2-(2nd-gen)-usb
Today I review the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (2nd Gen) USB Audio Interface. This may not be the cheapest interface on the market, but you are getting what you pay for. If you are looking to record high res audio with a low noise floor on a budget, then the Scarlett 2nd Gen series is the way to go.

LYXPR
lyxpro-hhmu-10-dynamic-usb-mic-review
Today I review a budget USB Dynamic Mic, the LyxPro HHMU-10 or HMU-10. This thing is just a USB mic, there’s no latency free monitoring or XLR output. For the price, I don’t think I could justify it since the Q2u is a few dollars more expensive.

512 A
512-audio-skylight-streamer-mic-review
Today I review a new streaming mic from 512 audio, the Skylight. This thing is built incredibly well and offers a more mid forward sound with a smooth texture to the mic which is very pleasing. If you don’t like mid forward mics or if you have an overly nasally voice, chances are you’re not going to be too into this mic.

SHURE
shure-mvx2u-interface-review-demo
Today I walkthrough, explain, test and review the new Shure MVX2u. This is the smallest interface I've reviewed and it offers +60dB of gain as well as Digital Signal Processing such as EQ, Compression, and Limiting. The preamp is on the noisier side of things and as of early-September 2023 there is an issue with low frequency sounds increasing the noise floor of the device.
