Behringer UCG102 GUITAR LINK - Guitar-to-USB Interface with Included Software - Mac OS X and Windows

Comments about Behringer UCG102 GUITAR LINK Guitar-to-USB Interface:

When the product arrived in the mail I was so happy to finally start recording again. But soon found out how horrible of a product this was. The sound quality was horrible, the amp interfaces sounded like nails on a chalk board, the recording program it came with was really cheap, and it wouldn't work with other legit recording programs like ableton live or garageband. Bottom Line, this product was a huge disappointment.

I used it with a 15" Macbook Pro and Garageband. No need to install anything on Mac just plug and play with Garageband. it is very good value for money and good build quality. Although the sound quality is good enough just for the money.

I purchased for use with GarageBand. For the price, I think it more than gets the job done.

This ended up being an excellent purchase. It was easy to set up, and for the price I couldn't have asked for more.

I'm very happy with the build quality and sound quality of this product. It is supplied with drivers for XP, but you will have to download those for Windows 7. It works well on both. The amplifier - AC Box Combo - has great sound and effects. You can find examples of its use on Youtube. I dropped one star as I could not figure out how to make the sound output go through the PC. I use headphones or monitor speakers that connect directly to the UCG102 little box. A great product for the price. I'm very happy [...]

This is not a plug & play device.
Tried on two good XP computers without satisfactory results.
No support from Behringer other than a verbatim copy from the instruction manual.
I run midi on three computers through a couple sound systems with very few problems. This device/interface however, is not user friendly and wastes your time. I'll be looking for something that works when I want it to.
I'm sending it back...

If someone is looking for the perfect, audiophile-satisfying solution, this may not be the right way to go. If, however, you want to be able to play your guitar through your computer without the "pro- pricetag", this is a great way to do it. I was able to use it with Apple's Garage Band and try all the new play along features.

I am a guitarist, I play Spanish guitar. i use my laptop for recording music, it's HP, this device is great, I loved it, especially it worked well with my classical guitar,
This that i didn't like first, that i had problems with the driver, and my windows 7 was reading it as a mic not a line in, so it gave me a horrible noise when I started recording

I got that driver from the website, and now it's working wel

amazing

I purchased the UCG102 to use with my mac-mini which at the time was running OS 10.5.4. When I plugged it in my mac recognized it. Unfortunately, even though I can see the signal from my guitar is reaching the mac, the guitar can't be heard in the headphones. I could hear recorded music but not my guitar. I upgraded my OS to 10.5.8 but it didn't fix the problem. When I researched the problem on the internet I found other mac users who were having the same problem. Not all mac users, just some. I couldn't find anyone who had found a solution to this issue.

I bought the product because I love to play guitar and show off what I have made up. So i wanted something that i could use to record my guitar playing straight to my computer without the poor sound recorder quality. This product is easy to set up. You just plug it in, download a cd, and play. It isnt the most top of the line product but it is satisfactory for me. (I didnt have plans on recording a platinum album or anything)- Zach

This does exactly what it says in allowing you to connect your guitar to your computer. The included amp modeling software sounds very good and allows you to get a wide variety of sounds. There aren't a lot of extra features, but if all you need is to connect one guitar to your computer this will certainly fit the bill. The biggest drawback is that the included drivers will only allow the guitar's sound to be sent to the built-in headphone jack; however, find the software called ASIO4ALL, which should allow you to route the output to any other audio device on your computer.

This is a cool little interface that meets every need that I expected. It allows you to play an analog guitar through your computer and outputs to headphones or an amp. Very satisfied with purchase. It can't be beat for the price.

Problems Encountered: Setup was a little tricky if you are using Windows, but most setups are with Windows. You have to install the ASIO driver from the CD that comes with the device. After that everything works as advertised.
