Okay here's the "Reader's Digest" version:February 13, 2013 Music Background: Musician-Singer/Sogwriter Started off with an AVID M-Box PT 8 LE which was okay for a newbie. I then upgraded to a TASCAM 1800 (still using PT 8 LE) to get more I/O. This di... read more [+]d the job until I upgraded my Mac to OS X 8 and they didn't have the drivers at the time. This unit was alright but I called my Sweetwater rep who recommended the PreSonus 1818VSL. Now that made the past interfaces appear to be so/so. This was my "Baby" for my home studio until it started having latency issues along w/popping sounds. After doing some research I found that I wasn't the only one. As of today I am still dealing w/intermittent issues... However, no worries thanks to Sweetwater's extended warranty and tech support I will have it resolved. Now... with regards to my latest purchase of the Fireface UCX? This is a beautiful interface! The pre's are sweet! This by far blows away my other interfaces. I purchased it for portability, iOS interface with my iPad and its a great complement to Logic Pro/PT 10. I use this more than the other interfaces in my home studio. So here's my humble opinion: it's a great pro-level 18 I/O Hybrid interface that has exceeded my expectations. What more can I say? If you're looking for a portable stand-alone or DAW integrated audio interface with sweet preamps... Look no further! close [-] Maximization of Money Spent

Everyone else can drool over the details, I'll just tell you that the sound is flawless, it is super versatile and (with expansion to multiple units possible) will be the centerpiece to my studio for a long time to come! close [-] Excellent product

I do have lots of equipment and earned some rights to write a word or two. RME UCX is a great sounding unit, PRO stuff. It can compete with some big names is the industry and this is not a joke.
