    As a fan of UAD gear, this is a great product with a cool vintage look, small enough to fit in your backpack and take with you on the go, and built to record studio-quality sound it's a great plug-and-play.

    A: The input is a "combo jack", so no adapter is needed as combo jacks accept both XLR and 1/4" connections
