Miditech Audiolink III Audio Interface

Review #1: UNBOXINGNOTE: I just received this product today, so this is just based on the apparent build quality, and I may update this later after testing. So, perhaps like many of you who have scoured the internet for inexpensive XLR audio interfaces, this "class-compliant" (no drivers needed) interface caught my attention due to it's low price. The first thing I noticed was that the packaging stated it's compatiblity with Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and 8, showing it was manufactured around that time. The second thing I noticed was that it was "Made in Taiwan". I hadn't seen that mentioned on products for a while, so that was my second clue of the vintage of this device. Thirdly, I will leave off with a quick impression of build quality: The case is metal, the knobs are nice but not solid like my Roland, the switches are sturdy but inexpensive-feeling, and the input jacks are not reinforced (like the Presonus 96) and feel like they could move a little bit.The real test will be the performance, and I will update this review after a test.

So far it seems pretty good. I bough it replace a setup that died on me a while back ago. I haven't tested the self noise, but seems fairly quite. Would be cooler if it did have a higher resolution, but 16bit 44khz is just fine for what I do.Update: I have thrown some 600 ohm dynamic mics on it and have to crank the interface up to 75%, there is definitely noise, it not ultra loud, but loud enough to notice it even when speaking.

Does not work at all. The first xlr plug in recognizes that sound is coming into the mic but won’t actually record anything. The 2nd xlr slut doesn’t work at all. Complete waste of money save your time and money and get something else.

As described
