The excellent versatility / price ratio with Roland quality

Being a little hesitant to get the Rubix 22 as it is discreet in the landscape of audio interfaces, I finally launched and I do not regret my choice.

I use it in my mini home studio to record a microphone and a keyboard. My keyboard can also be used as a master keyboard thanks to the MIDI input.
The drivers worked instantly on Windows 10, Reaper, Audacity, Discord or Steam. The sound is faithful to the associated equipment and no frills.
The case is smaller than I imagined, metal, very well finished with chrome parts. LEDs are very visible.

If I had to blame something, it would be the gain of the pre-amps that I would like to push a little further because I have to push my microphone (dynamic) to 80% which leaves little margin. But even 100% the sound does not scill and is powerful.

In short, I recommend the Rubix 22 Roland for those looking for a versatile interface and quality (sound and finish) to start a home studio, a podcast ... The 2i2 may pale a little!

Nothing to say about the performance of Thomann :)

Everything was great, recommended

As an interface, I have previously used the Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 (mixer notebook). Every Windwows update has destroyed my drivers. At Win10 it was unbearable. All imaginable tricks did not help. So I scrapped it and after recommendation in a forum the Roland Rubix22 bought.
It's a Dream. The installation was a pleasure. No error message! Operational readiness after a few minutes.
