    Finally got around to reading the manual. Was disappointed to see that it is listed as a USB 2.0 interface.

    Emailed retailers listing the unit as a USB 3.0 audio interface asking them which is correct. Their listing or the manual specifications.

    Just wanted to mention that Sweetwater now shows the UAC-232 is indeed USB 2.0 :facepalm:

    SO basically an audio stacking interface.
    We have been doing this with Digital DSLR cameras for a long time now with bracketed shots with different -/+ exposures.

    The main problem I have with USB 2.0 is poor stability on newer motherboards. I constantly have drop-outs & countless weird issues running USB2 devices through USB3+ ports. This happens on most newer PCs I've used in the last few years, especially Ryzen systems. The sheer number of botched BIOS updates I've had to fumble through lately is astounding. Backwards compatibility is becoming increasingly less compatible, and finding a MB with enough USB2 ports is getting harder and harder nowadays.

    Marketing confusion again..... USB Type C is no reference to speed it is a connecter type only. Likely the next version of the interface will be USB 3 (reference to speed).
    Also NOT Android compatible but iOS is. No excuse for software NOT to be ready.
