Great input not a compelling bundle

The entire package shipped quickly and in good condition and the Scarlett solo is working great so far and setup was pretty easy. I already have an MXL 770 and probably could have skipped on the bundle, I took a shot on it because it was on sale and spare equipment is nice to have. Unfortunately it turns out it is hard to find specifications on the included microphone and headset and I have admittedly not tested out those components extensively yet. I would recommend it with some caveats based on pricing, on sale and you are starting with nothing sure! If not on sale maybe piece together other parts with the Solo by itself.

Great starter kit!

Everything looked great and came well packaged except the stand which came a bit smashed and one piece was broken but we were able to manage without that. only reason why it’s 4/5 . This is my son’s first studio set up so we don’t really have anything to compare it with lol as far as functionally. But so far so good! The mike is heavy not light, headphones feel good!
