I bought the Lexicon Alpha to record music onto my computer as a complete beginner, and I must say it is perfect in this situation. It has inputs for electric instruments, microphone and external music players. It comes with a USB connector to the computer, and so doesn't need any power supply, and most importantly from my point of view, it comes with a version of Cubase software - albeit a toned down version with only 8 tracks and limited number of MP3s you can create - which allows you to get going straight away (as long as you've got a microphone and the instruments!). The manual provides good, clear instructions to get started, and I must admit I have no complaints whatsoever about the Lexicon Alpha. I thoroughly recommend it!

Firstly, it took me less than 30 minutes to un-box and set up with very clear instructions. I bought it to upgrade from the internal sound-card in my Acer Windows Vista Basic laptop. I already use Cubase 5 so I was slightly worried that when installing I would have to install Cubase LE 4 but I didn't and actually had the control to install the vst pantheon reverb module to use with my current Cubase. I think I saw a review complaining about not having zero latency, not sure this is strictly possible, I definitely haven't had any noticeable latency problems.
The only thing lacking for me is a separate headphone level adjust, which would save me having to adjust monitors pre-amp. I guess this is just me being lazy though!
I would definitely suggest this product to anyone interested in an usb audio interface!

I wanted to start recording some songs at home to backing tracks to use as demos and my other half wanted to record guitar tracks. After searching Amazon for mixers that we could plug my mic into and he could use to record his guitar through, I came across this product. Based on the first review by Robbie Swale, I bought the Lexicon Alpha expecing great things. I was certainly not disappointed.
You upload the software to your pc/laptop and link up the mixer by USB with no DC adapter required! Import a backing track, switch on your mic/instrument and away you go.
Admitedly it took a little longer for me to process & edit the tracks I recorded but that was because I have never used recording software before.
It was simple to use (the instructions are your friends), and produces really good results and even reduces any time delay in your recording for you. I cannot wait to use it again. I would definitely recommend this product.

Good for beginners

Not a complaint!
I was willing to upgrade my internal sound-card, because I needed it for my music creation. Still I was on a short budget so after a bit of research I decided to give this a try. Read more

Unrealiable
This worked fine and sounded fairly clear for the money, only minimal noise, that could be put down to my System. But it stopped working after I had it for a about 5 months or so. Read more

Great interface. Terrible Cubase
Beware of the Cubase software included. It appears to be a trial version which despite installing twice and emailing Steinberg for help (which they failed to answer) keeps telling... Read more

low signal on the instrument input
The instrument input has a far too low signal, which made the Alpha hardly usable as such. I had tu plug my guitare in the auxiliary input so it could give an all right signal (!). Read more

Surprisingly good audio quality
I was surprised just how good this sounds, it has enough volume on the headphone monitor to drive my Sennheiser HD580 better than anything I have used before. Read more
