For any real recording of an instrument, you need to go line in from an amp. The instrument in is useless.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
Not a plug and play recorder that is that easy for one person. You really need another person to operate it while you play and sing.
Value
Was this item an overall good value?
Not really worth it when I have a Zoom H2 and a Line6 GX which are better and easier to use, plus the Acid Pro I had is better than the Cubase LE

It has all the features I need for recording my guitar and vocals, I opt'd for this design because all I needed was a guitar input & line in for a mic, and then just throw on my headphones right from the alpha and ready to record perfect quality tracks.

This thing was pretty much a breeze to set up. Though installing cubase was a hassle, I tried it & didnt like, so just went back tomy other recording software, it picked up the alpha fine & with this I experience NO latency issuess (even on an older computer), which is great becasue my past line 6 ux1 had bad lag.

Increible value for what I needed. As long as you know how to use your recording software & lexicon controls, you get perfect sound out of this thing and I see no need to buy anything more expensive for quality, only for more inputs/etc.
