The 2i2 is a compact audio interface with high quality pre-amps at an affordable price. This is great for users who are starting out with home recording and want a bang-for-the-buck interface.
SpecsUpdate
Pros
Pro You can monitor audio as you record
You won’t experience latency when recording vocals or instruments. The 2i2 has a zero-latency monitoring feature that will allow you to hear your recording off your headphones as your record. This’ll make it much easier for you to identify any recording errors as soon as they happen.
Cons
Con I/O options are minimal
You won’t be able to hook up a lot of devices with this interface. Aside from the 2 main inputs and headphone out at the front, you only get RCA outputs at the back. This limits the number of devices that you can connect to the 2i2. Also, the RCA outputs won’t be able to deliver optimal signal clarity, and may require that you use adapters for compatibility with many studio output devices which tend to use a 6.3mm connection.
