The results are in!

In my recent blind test, I compared three very different audio interfaces โ€” the $49 IK Multimedia iRig USB, the IK Multimedia AXE I/O ONE, and the Universal Audio Apollo x4 โ€” to see whether we could actually hear the difference between them when using guitar modeling software.

Now it's time to reveal which interface was behind Clips A, B and C, take a look at the poll results, and see just how easy โ€” or difficult โ€” it was to identify the differences between them.
If you haven't watched the original blind test yet, I highly recommend watching it first and making your own picks before watching the reveal!

Also featured in this video is my latest Vintage '60 Tweed B-Man P-10Q Ultimate Collection, created from my all-original 1960 Tweed Fender Bassman and captured through four vintage 1960 Jensen P-10Q 10" speakers.

Let me know in the comments โ€” did you get it right, and could you actually hear a difference between the three interfaces?
