    Don't do what I did...

    I rebought the Duo from Best Buy after it crashed out immediately after buying one from MicroCenter (came missing a cord). For first-time users, do the start-up firmware update directly from the Duo on wifi and not through your laptop/app. Since doing it correctly the second time from my BestBuy purchase, the Duo has been great. Using it for a two-podcast setup. Watched a YouTube video to set it up with the rodecaster mics and the audio is very clean and blocks out outdoor sounds (in a regular non-sound-proof room). It is small and portable in comparison to other brands. Unless you need more XLR inputs, I highly recommend the Duo over the Pro from Rode. Love that it has a regular headphone jack in the front so I could monitor without buying separate headphones with different jacks on the back.

    Can't say anything but WOW!!!

    This thing is amazing. There is so many as adjustments and tweaks you can do. Adding sound bytes is so easy. Drag and drop. Great for pretty much anything from streaming to music production. A little on the pricey side but look at it as an investment. This is a great machine.

    Great system!

    Incredible upgrade over the original! I use this for my podcast and it has been an impressive piece of gear. The sound is great, the system is great, no complaints. I really like the upgraded amps, I can power an SM7B without a cloud lifter. The angled, upgraded screen is a pretty nice feature too.

    Powerful, Simple to use, fantastic value

    I’m so impressed with this compact console. Built in dual wireless, USBC mixing options, all the digital processing you could want. Some advanced features are buried in menus, but the documentation online is great. It’s mind boggling how this would have been a rack of equipment a decade ago. Wow.
