No noticeable from an amp for the most part and can plug in 2 instruments

It is not very much money for something as good as it is. The gain is good enough on it that with direct monitor and no modeler open if its at max it sounds like distortion and doesn't take much when in an amp modeling software to sound good. I have had other sound interfaces right around the same price point and slightly more expensive and this one takes the cake on how good it is.

Nice and simple

Requires nowhere near as many cords as my FocusRite does, all you need is a USB-C and an XLR and you're good to go. It doesn't need an additional power source, which is either good or bad depending whether you're using a tablet or phone instead of a laptop and how bad the battery on either of those is. A little bit of gain goes a long way, which will be important to keep in mind if you're using this to record music instead of podcasts as this was intended for. All in all, a solid and incredibly user-friendly interface.

Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen

$88.00 - $391.13

similar sound

Does the same thing and is just about as user-friendly. Does require more cords and power if you're using a mobile device but that means it won't drain your battery either.

Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen

$118.00 - $189.99

similar sound

Does the same thing and is just about as user-friendly. Does have another XLR port but the PS22 Lite does have both left and right monitor ports on the back.
