    Sound cuts out often

    The sound cuts out after a few minutes of running. Comes back on after a computer restart. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall a couple times but the problem has yet to stop. Not sure what else to do.

    Excellent quality and great price!

    I am a singer/songwriter and I make my music at home. I ordered this because I wanted to record my guitar and vocals and it was so simple to set up, came with a ton of excellent software and it’s very straightforward- plug in and get to playing. I am very happy with this product and would recommend anyone who is looking for great sound quality without dropping too much dough.
