the t.bone USB 1G

Poor audio quality and driver issues makes this hard to recommend, unless you only want to record quick snippets of sounds.

Cons:

High noise level, and poor signal-to-noise ratio makes it unusable to use with 'higher-gain' amp simulation, and there is no hardware level gain control makes it impossible to adjust for better SNR.

Plug-n-play concept means that you have to use ASIO4ALL driver to have an acceptable latency for live monitoring (a must if you are playing through amp simulation), this is no problem for experienced user, but for beginners it is definitely a challenge. Using ASIO4ALL also makes it impossible to have other audio source playing at the same time from the computer. Using WindowsAudio yields much greater latency. Note that this applies only to Windows, I have not tested on MAC.

No dedicated output means that latency is increased, as well as more complication in software level, sample rates has to be matched to have live monitoring, and this is not beginner friendly.

Pros:

Price point. No other AD converter comes close to this price level.

In conclusion, I can not recommend this product, the poor noise level, and software complication makes this product very hard to use.

First: this cord/interface does what it is supposed to do. It works as an plug n play interface and changes your 1/4" input signal into an digital signal, which you can apply to any programm you want.

Handling is very nice! Real plug and play, nothing to install (i use windows vista!)

There arent really any Features, so I dont know what to write about. Everything listed in the discribtion also works.

The quality is OK. The Cord is relatively slim and doesnt really appeal too strong, but for studio use and if you are a little bit careful, it will be allright!

BUT: the Sound isnt too good! It tends to have a continous, high frequent hiss or hum in everything i record. No matter if its an instrument played directly into the Computer or any Effects pedal between or any 1/4" output i tried to record from!

If the sound would be as good as the handling, it would be THE best product i ever bought. But this cord really isnt worth more than it costs. If you want to record easily, and dont mind having a bit of noise in your recording, try it. If you lay more claim to your tone, dont buy such a cheap device!
