Mackie Big Knob Studio

I've had two Mackie Big Knobs; the above model and its previous version. Both developed issues within a year! I wrote to Mackie a few times and the products went beyond their warrantee before they got back to me. I'm still challenging them for a refund!

I had this device about 6 months, handled great, sound was amazing and perfectly suited my studio setup.

Unfortunately it completely broke down on me and was just red lining dead signal.

I sent it back and had it repaired (took a few months)
it came back in working order and I thought that would be the end of it but it just broke down on me again as I write this review with a great big pop that lmost broke my speakers.

Would never buy again. I'm getting a Behringer :)

Weird setup for using the ASIO driver.
Stopped producing sound and buttons not functioning anymore all of a sudden after only a few months.
Second time having the same issue after another 9 months.
Seen others on the web having the exact same issue and had it 2 times in the 2 years of owning this device.
Besides that it handles very well with awesome convenient functions.
Sound quality is also great.
