I've got one of those. Works as advertised. It's kinda cheap looking and feels pretty flimsy, but I haven't had any problems with it yet. Behringer does have an updated Windows 7 driver for it, which is a big plus for me.

The construction. It doesn't look or feel like it would stand up to any abuse. I don't really have anything to compare it to, but it sounds fine for me and it has a 64-bit Windows 7 driver, which is much more than I can say for my Digitech RP155. It's driver will not work with either Audacity nor Reaper.

I have one and it works reasonably well. I use it for guitar and have used it for converting tapes to mp3.

I haven't used many/any other audio interfaces, but this does its job and gets out of the way. It's compatible with Linux, which is a major consideration for me.

Maybe it's Windows, Tung, but mine does work in Audacity when I run it on Linux. I agree that it feels really freaking flimsy, but if you have the right adapter to use it, it's not a bad basic audio interface. I didn't really see anything better for the money when I was looking for something.

The Behringer works great with Windows 7. I downloaded the 64 bit driver just the other day, and it works great with Reaper and Audacity. It is the driver for my Digitech RP155 that is giving me fits. The driver does not play nice with Window 7. Imagine that. :thwap

Oh, right. I just re-read your post. Sorry about that.
