I have quite a few more episodes in process, so it should start rolling soon--consistently 8). I bought the iMic to plug in my Eurorack mixer; I have also used it with a tape deck to transfer some cassettes. I have found the device to be pretty noiseless--the tape transfers worked great, even using software Griffin supplies with the device. I have not quite nailed down how to record my voice without latency issues (using Soundtrack), but hope to clear that up. The next step up for an input device (+$100) seemed prohibitive for just starting my projects; we'll see how far it takes me before I "step up."
