I’ve used this originally with my iPhone, but when my audio interface died I replaced it with this until I could afford a new one and this worked perfectly, I just needed more inputs. It has 3 great built-in mics, and you can download the software from Line-6 for free that gives you all the sounds you would want. I’d love to hold on to it but I need the money to help pay for the new interface.
