    • False advertisement if you ask me, as they are trying to market it like you get the software when in reality you don't. to be clear though I am not dogging the Scarlett Solo, that is a great product, and if you are looking for an affordable pre amp this one is a good option
    • The software that comes with it is really nice as well.

    • On the website, there are several videos worth watching that walk you through the registration process and how to download the driver and the rest of the bundle of free software that comes with this

    • The software alone is worth more than the price of the hardware

    • The big thing is, rotten software...or software designed for people with better than average skill, can not be blamed on this product
    • One nice side benefit is that this package does include some great software tools:*Pro Tools*First Focusrite Creative Pack*Ableton Live Lite*Focusrite Control*Softube Time and Tone Bundle*Focusrite’s Red Plug-in Suite*2GB of Loopmasters samplesBetween the quality of the interface and the accompanying downloads, this is a spectacular audio interface at an amazing price
