Perfection Personified.
One signal path is the normal electric guitar pedals and IR cab loader at the end and the other path is the piezo output on one of my guitars for the acoustic sounds.
I love that you can use either usb port to power it up. I use the larger connector instead of the micro-usb because it's a more solid connection. I also keep a couple of rechargeable batteries on hand just in case. My pedal power supply has a USB out for charging phones and it works fine to power the U-24. I also have USB ports on my power strip and those also work fine to power the U-24.
The one draw back is that there aren't any XLR outputs. Just 1/4" and RCA. So I'm sending the output to a DI box. I also use the headphone out for my IEM or powered wedge.
I have hooked it up to my laptop running Windows 10 and it works fine in Reaper. I doubt I'll ever use it as an interface since I already have a couple of more robust options in the studio.
I have now used the unit for multiple practices and a couple of gigs. Issue free thus far. The unit is plastic, so I'm pretty gentle with it. I picked up a hard clam style case for it.

The delay in audio was unacceptable.
Other than that the interface etc is pretty good.

*Update*: I received the replacement unit on Saturday. It worked fine for Sunday. I brought it home with me to figure out how to separate mic inputs in the new program we were using. Suddenly, input 1 stopped working... AGAIN. I find this totally unbelievable, and I don't know what we're going to do. This Zoom is a colossal waste of money. I'm going to ask Zoom for a refund so I can buy a USB Audio Interface that works, and I doubt they'll give it to me, so I'll probably have to go after them with Consumer Affairs.
