This is truly the cheapest of the cheap, and it will get you by if you virtually cannot afford anything else. If you can spend a bit more, I highly recommend the Scarlett Solo, it will last much longer and provide better quality sound.

I bought it with the Pearstone PM Series XLR M to XLR F Professional Microphone Cable - 25' (7.6 m) and is perfect to start podcasting or recording videos.

Great for the MIC/LINE 1 input (with phantom power) but I wish the INST 2 input had more gain to use a dynamic mic.

Replacing the pre I use for on-the-road voiceovers. UM2 is lightweight and plugs into USB not the mic input on my laptop giving me better headroom. Headphone gain isn't loud but is acceptable. Plus, not that I'll use it for VO's but I got a free Tracktion 5 software download with the pre....like getting the pre for free!
