A really, really good interface
SOUND: so crisp through JBL 305P speakers.
DESIGN: If you place interface on left side of desk, MONITOR knob can block R channel meter easily. Monitor outs are placed horizontally meaning you have to cross your L & R cables. It would be better vertically, like a lot of other interfaces. Not the end of the world though!
FEATURES:
Wow, it really does punch above its weight for this price. Has pretty much all of what the Motu M4 has plus it includes lots of software, a MIDI IN/OUT and also a hub extender. That's quite nifty!
WARNING: Check the power rating for each of your devices which will be plugged into your hub. It only provides for up to 250mA!
BUILD: Really solid, very nicely weighted - it will not move around easily Also I feel you could drop this 100 times without any concern. It's really well built
Side note:
I initially purchased the Motu M4 and while that has super, well thought out design, I was experiencing sudden "bit-crushing" type effect on the audio. This happened on two different machines running different versions of Windows (10 & 11). I then suspected the device or drivers were faulty. This led me to investigate and discovered it is a common enough issue even on the Motu M2 also. Thomann cover return shipping within 30 days which was neat.

Neat and nice look
Bought it a few months ago and I almost use it every day. The interface itself does not have a power button so the lights of the right two knobs can never be turned down which makes me unplug it during night and it is kinda annoying. The appearance is very peachy and that USB port (which I think is rarely provided in an audio interface) is also useful if you need to plug your midi keyboard in your computer at the same time especially for a Mac user like me.

All in All a really good one!
Read too many good reviews about this interface, so i bought it and i was not disappointed, I had one issue though.. I have some sound bleeding from my speakers even though the volume knob is set to 0 as well the headphones, so I would definitely check that if you are going to buy this one.
other from that i find the design nice and the sound quality is pretty good plus the pack of vsts that it come with.

Very Good Product
I have owned this product for over a year and I have had no issues with it whatsoever.
It has always done its job whether I connected Mics or Guitars or while using the USB-C connection at the back to connect straight to my Mac and run softwares or Arturia Workstations/Plugins.
I can confidently say from experience that this Audio Interface is a powerhouse and a very reliable product.

Nice Interface
I like it. Quality is very nice, metal build, tactile knobs. It's a nice interface for the money. Software was a bit difficult to figure out initially, however now seems to be easy to deal with
