Behringer UMC1820 - Rumoured September 2014 release?

Greetingz.................

Way back in February 2014 - around the time of NAMM 2014 - I mentioned a new interface that seemed too good to be true !

The Behringer U-Phoria UMC1820..  18 IN / 20 OUT - USB interface.

Sweetwater in the US of A have updated their order page for the UMC1820 - and it estimates a September 2014 release date.  Oooooooooooh !

Looking at my BLOG STATS for SIXSTRINGZUK - I've seen a lot of traffic / visitors in the past few months who are searching for information, reviews and pricing on the UMC1820 - so, it must be an interface that has grabbed people's attention.

It certainly did mine.................

The only outstanding question I have is about the Mixer / Routing and standalone capabilities within the software elements.....  How versatile will it really be?

Software / Firmware will either MAKE it or BREAK it...............

Let's hope they stand true on firmware upgradable to 192kHz also.

Released anytime now then? *fingers crossed*
