The liquid pres sound great, but they're not going to sound exactly like the preamp they're modeling

The pres are clean, and even when they are cranked all the way, I don't hear any additional noise

I am not a computer technician, I am an effing guitar player and I shouldn't have to crack open my computer and slide in an all new card just so I can have nice mic pres.

It's got basically all the same ins and outs, but like mentioned twice as many mic pres, and dual headphone outputs which is super super useful to me
