Holy Hot Damn
This is an absolute beast. I can create the most beautiful leads and basses with ease and since I have a minimal understanding of sound design that is a huge plus. I love the interface, the drag and drop capabilities and al of the parameters that you are able to modulate. Although I just got spire and I wish serum had an arpeggiator.

not bad
It might just be me but I do not like the fact that I have to unplug my speakers when I want to listen to my headphones and then plug them back in each time I want to use them and at time I have to unplug the scarlet to get the noise to stop. I do have unbalanced wires but I noticed that even if I moved the cables around to the point where the buzzing got less distracting the problem would not be solved until the scarlet was unplugged, computer restarted and latency increased.
My computer is new, I bought it a month or two after I got the interface and it is a mid to high end pc (it was on sale for 549) so I dont think that the computer could have something to do with this. Either way I'm going to sell it and get the apollo twin

oh man, that speaker/headphone thing would be a total deal breaker.... I have 3 sets of monitors on a switchbox already and I don't wanna touch that if I need cans. Which doesn't come up a lot as I distrust headphones, but sometimes....

Lovely
Honestly love them but, not that they are bad but I think I want to sell them and get the barefoot footprint 01 or the adam audio a8x or a77x
Sorry I dont have a good review because I had them for a few months but had to leave them back home and I havent used them for about 3 months as of right now but from what I remember they were very enjoyable

Skrillex was right
I love this, there is so much you can do with it if you know what you're doing. Honestly I am not the best in the area of sound design so when I went at this without knowing anything I made some of the most terrible effects I've ever heard but luckily the have a vast array of amazing presets and it's also been fun to learn on the go. Would definitely recommend. The sounds you can make are A1, it's relatively cheap and opens up a new meaning to distortion.

try your shitty patches in a mix, sometimes the worst sounding effects solo are just the ticket in the mix.... consider trying the effect in parallel across a group of instruments on an effects buss to add a little shitiness to glue a group of sounds together... there's just nosuch thing as a bad patch, but there are certainly bad presets because every yob with a computer and a DAW is using those same sounds

well
I mean I like it for tons of reasons and maybe it just me but, I first started making music on my phone, then I went to a windows computer, got fl studio, had some fun, went to Ableton, and was blown away, and I get to Logic and it was just wow, but maybe its just because I am not used to apple yet but, I dislike it because one I like to use samples to program my drums and even though the drummer is just mind blowing I am just used to having a library inside the DAW where you can drag and drop samples, I don't like have to go to import settings and scroll through folders. And two, I don't like how after using a drum rack, you have to convert it to audio to sidechain it. Its just not my workflow, I jump around and tweak and tweak until I'm satisfied. Taking the time to convert back and forth was frustrating for me. But programming synth melodies and utilizing its amp designers and multitude of reverb options is too fun and I cant deny that so for me I'm going to definitely use both Ableton and logic as soon as I get the money for the suite version and new computer

Good
Bought this since I'm on a budget and am saving up for a newer computer anyway. Despite its limitations, you can still do quite a bit. Honestly it did take some getting used coming from the demo version of the suite version but that's about it, oh yeah, and I hate the fact that the eq 8 is not included but oh well I will just have to deal with it for the time being.
Version: Ableton Live 9132
Amazing
To be honest it took a little getting used coming from a music consumer's perspective diving into the music producers world of needing headphones that don't color the sound. Only thing though is that I keep confusing myself in thinking that my song doesn't have enough bass and when I put in my 30 dollar earbuds, I find that I added way too much bass and have too go back and fix it. Its not a complaint, just saying if you if these our your first professional Monitor's like they are for me, then this should be something to look out for.
Also don't get discouraged like I did when I first got them. Since I got them off amazon I felt cheated out of 200 some odd dollars because they felt a little lacking... With the M70x's that is simply not the case.
