Blackstar POLAR 2 Audio Interface Review
Under the hood, the Blackstar POLAR 2 is a powerful 2-channel USB audio interface that takes your direct guitar signal and transforms it into something special. Its FET input stage delivers ultra-clean sound with plenty of headroom, while the unique Enhance circuit mimics the feel and response of a real valve amp. You can push the inputs hard without digital clipping, record detailed vocals with its warm vintage-style mic preamps, and fine-tune your mix using the included POLAR Control software. It even ships with a full suite of plugins and tools so you can start creating music as soon as you open the box.
