  It isn't pro-level equipment

The main problem with this unit is that the output won't provide pro levels - it won't provide full headroom to an audio interface expecting +4dBu - that includes everything from the M-Audio interfaces like the delta 44 & 66 to super-expensive stuff. It *is* nice and quiet and sounds fairly good, also provides nearly +48v for your condenser mics - i guess it could be used as a pre-amp for computer soundcards or to provide extra mic inputs on small mixers where the line level inputs can be cranked up ... but, alas, it's not a viable cheap pro-audio preamp. Also, the input distorts well before the red clip LEDs light
