Highlights
Quality
The free plugins are well made and easy to use.
The focusrite scarlett 18i20 is a very solid piece of hardware.
If you don't hear your headphones, reinstall the drivers, restart, and make sure you click the follow up prompt when you login to finish.
This box is also capable of supernatural sampling rates up to 192 khz.
Price
Might not be able to keep it under 500 bucks that way.
Not a big deal, but sometimes a person's interface is buried so you have to reach.
Shipping
The item shipped without any problem or damages.
Packaging/appearance
I plugged the computer cable they put in the box, i plugged the power cable, i plugged the two main channel in the output.
Competitiveness
