Hi everyone!

My neighbors don't like me practicing in the afternoon / evening hours and a friend advised me to get a Line 6. The thing is, I'm an analogue purist and modelling technology seems wrong and fake to me. I don't need 50 best models of mediocre quality. If I'm to get a digital studio box, I want it to have less models but of better quality and be relatively durable. My friend uses L6 Studio POD GX but he told me to get UX1. I did some research on guitar forums and people say it's inferior to Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 or 2i2, quality-wise. I need it strictly for home recording for GMC purposes and I already have some stompboxes and a tube amp, if that matters.

Does anyone use either? Which one would you recommend to me? My GC will have UX1 by tomorrow but they won't mind me buying Scarlett instead.

Cheers,
Adam

PS. If a mxer console can be used this way, I'll take that but someone told me I need some DI box to make it work.

The focusrite scarlett series are very popular soundcards, here in GMC we also have a few users. It would be a better choice as the more users, the more help you'll get if you have any problems setting it up.

I don't think it comes with amp software like line6 does, but there are so many software options these days that won't be a problem only a matter of preference.
