I bought a Volt 2 without asking, as I have always trusted UA. I therefore had no detailed knowledge of its specifications. I was a bit disappointed that it didn't have DSPs, as I own a lot of UAD plugins, but it was enough for me that it was light, had two inputs and was portable. The MIDI input was also a great feat. OK, but why am I talking in the past tense? Because, sadly, this piece of hardware has revealed itself of very poor manufacture.
I used it a few times at home mostly to try it out and only once outside for a theater show where I was doing some sound design. Back home I put the card back in the drawer as I normally use an Apollo. Today I wanted to try it out to see if everything's OK as I have another show tomorrow but it did not power on.
Next thing I know, I try to contact support and fall prey to the automated bot, which not only doesn't know how to help me but also repeats the same questions over and over again, like a broken record. Of course, I have more interesting things to do than converse with a stupid bot.
UA, if there is any human out there, help!
