I see a lot of conflating in these reviews. The 1620 has 16 channels in; 18 if you include the stereo mix it sends as well, with FireWire option card. It is not the same product as the 1620i. I’ve been using it on Macs since its release, and it has never had a problem. No driver needed on Mac. It has 8 xlr’s with 48v and 4 stereo TRS channels adding another 8 inputs. Each channel with XLR also has a line input with TRS. The first two channels have a hiz switch for instruments.

I’ve had this for years and it’s essential. It great to have any pre and compressor chain in one device without having to go into the computer and change settings. These are hard to find for a reason. I’m a big fan of convolution over modeling. Great results easy for an affordable price.

It’s what they advertise, it can be used with nearly everything and when driven add that saturation.

This was killer when it came out and it’s great quality and a great addition for the money these days, but I don’t think it’s the best on the market anymore. Well worth the money.

This is a great device. Unison pre’s are great, but with one processor it’s not enough, but if you pair it with a satellite and it’s a great deal. Kind of a pain to have to go into the computer to change settings like you can with something like a liquid channel, but those are hard to find and this is the next best thing, for the price.

This mic is stellar. It’s warm and paints a 3d image. If you’re looking for a mic that will shine, this is it.

This is a great mic to have as it has so many polar patterns and is a good quality. I’ll often leave it as a room mic in Omni but if I ever have the need for it I’ll use it, on anything. It just a great all around mic to have when you need it.

Mix a little of this on a vocal track with an 87 and it’s a little magic.

This mic is the missing link. It’s very very warm. It’s great on vocals, strings, and horns. It can really change the mood.
