Review: Digital recording for a FAIR price - The unit works well to digitize the sound which can be limited by Do-It-Yourself recorders such as phone, computer inputs or MICS. I tried so many things before jumping in to record correctly with appropriate hardware. OLD school items such as phones, or even high dollars MICs with plug-ins are not worthy of publishable recordings since the clipping is eliminated by forcing software limits on input (without your desire, as most items do this as a precautionary measure - to NOT ruin the PC, sound card, guts of the equipment, etc... The M-Audio, as well others, was researched and matched quite well with the higher priced items. It also had equal HZ ratings as some that were 5X the cost. I used this specific piece of equipment to record 20 songs for copyright with very good clarity and response. The CONS - the clipping adjustment is peaked at 9 or 10, which keeps you hopping on sound adjustments for various inputs (singing vs. instrument). It is a SOLO output regardless the hookups, which means, all SOUND (even if singing and playing two instruments) is blended to ONE OUTPUT (which is the input to DAW/Software). The drivers, which are FREE to download as well the software does NOT work on older PCs. I have an i5 rockin' PC that runs like a race horse, BUT will not run this stuff. So, even though the compliance online stated various modern WIN Platforms included, it will not on WIN 7 Home Premium. The FREE software will not either. However, it is running, and did run successfully on my Win 10 computer system. Generically speaking - it worked, and worked well!
Review: The M-Audio M-Track Duo USB Audio Interface is exactly what I searched for at a good price. - The M-Audio M-Track Duo USB Audio Interface fit my needs perfectly. I searched for awhile, fretting between this dual channel model and the FocusRite Scarlett solo channel, which cost around $30 more. I'm relatively new to recording and editing music, also learning the open-source free software from Audacity (not provided by M-Audio) at the same time. This M-Audio pairs up with a self-designed and built lapsteel guitar that runs through a bunch of mid-priced pedals. The signal exits a DI (direct in) box via XLR cable and then pumps into a 2000's 175 watt JBL pro stage monitor/amp (15 in woofer, ported midrange and a peaky tweeter when up close; found two at Goodwill)) that is monitored by the The M-Audio M-Track Duo USB Audio Interface. My laptop and the Audacity software handle the processing, recording and editing chores. The signal (all quiet and clean throughout the whole hardware/software interface) is returned to the JBL (the amp has two 1/4 inputs and one each XLR in and out) in a loving manner with great sound. In fact, I can run my Beat Buddy Mini 2 drum pedal directly through it on a separate channel OR record it in the mix. Between the pre-amped DI box, the Crystal pre-amp in the The M-Audio M-Track Duo USB Audio Interface, and the JBL amp, there is plenty of power for sound! I've also used it to successfully pull backing tracks from online sources. I'm stoked! The slightly less fantastic: As others have noted, the input channel pots do not have a well-designed linear taper, so the signal is almost all or none (mine mostly sits at the 9 to 9.5 point) so clipping is hard to avoid. Add in the worn-out pots in the JBL (will replace shortly) with high power and I'm just a bit frustrated. So far I'm able to compensate in editing. Ease-of-setup, near-perfect interface with Audacity and Windows 11, low-noise high-performance output and a budget-friendly price have really set the The M-Audio M-Track Duo USB Audio Interface in a class by itself! Note: I do not play professionally, gig, or leave the house with this so I can't attest to its durability or suitability for rough situations.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work in Linux?**
A: I'm currently using it with Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS. Output works fine, but has quiet static (a problem I've read is common with USB audio interfaces). That static is quiet enough to not notice unless the volume is cranked and nothing is playing.

Input appears to work. It worked for an electric guitar when I tried it. It did not work for a microphone I tried, but that microphone may be the issue. It's got a mini XLR cable that plugs into a wireless transmitter. I thought maybe I could connect it directly to the interface instead of using the wireless adapters. I bought a mini XLR to XLR adapter and plugged it into this interface. I couldn't get it to work. I'll be trying a different dynamic mic with an XLR cable soon.

**Q: Can you monitor your zero latency direct voice mixed with media track out from daw ?**
A: Hi, M-Audio support here! Yes, you can directly monitor your voice with zero latency whilst listening to the backing track on your DAW.

**Q: Does this work with windows 10?**
A: Hi, M-Audio support here! Yes, M-Track Solo is compatible with Windows 10!

**Q: Do i just need to use a usb c to usb adapter for this to work with my ipad pro?**
A: Hi, M-Audio support here! Yes, connectivity to your iPad Pro can be achieved using Apple's USB C > USB adapter.
