Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR

Hi Kevan Back when Behringer bought Midas or when in to partnership with Midas water, a lot of people thought it’s the start of big things. When the x32 mixer was released and there was talk of Midas tech used in the pre amps things sounded even better but soon most realised after all the x32

Each to their own and keeping budgets in mind etc, but I don't consider Behringer a pro audio brand and will never use anything Behringer in my studio or in a live rig, especially a piece of gear which passes audio. If you are serious about what you do then get something decent, Focusrite make

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR

Actually, that company has had a giant shake up in the past three years. For the longest time, I believe the exact same thing you did. They have since bought Midus TC helicon, and other big companies. When they released their x32 line of live/studio mixers, it took the pro audio world by

Thank you for this insight. Great points here. Maybe I will go back to my original plan of getting a focus right Scarlet 18 I 20. They are fantastic interfaces, and worth the wait to get the extra cash together. Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 14, 2016, at 10:32 AM, Nickus de Vos

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR

Hi, Out of these interfaces you just talked about in your messages which one is probably the best one and going down in quality as I will be trading in the Digi 003 so will get some trade in value for it so want to know the quality and accessibility of these three interface companies?

As stated earlier t till you start looking at interfaces from the likes of Apogee, Universal Audio or the Focusrite Clarite stuff. another interfaces in that price range i don’t know that you will be stepping up. There is a reason those cost what they do and the others are considerably less

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR

If I were in the market for a new interface, I'd go for the Focusrite Clarit 8 or 8x or the Motu 896MK2 or MK3. https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email_source=link_campaign=sig-email_content=webmail;

This is the rub. Every company is moving to this software control panel. This is where you route your headphones and other output pairs, turn direct monitoring on and off, add any direct monitoring effects, etc. The other rub is that the factory defaults for these settings are often not

The scarlet 18 – I 20 has its own power supply. So does the octoPre. The octoPre cannot be used as a standalone interface for your daw. It's design is to expand other interfaces via adat. >From Chad's iPhone > On Jan 13, 2016, at 1:36 PM, Nick Gawronski wrote: > >

When the company I work for was setting up equipment for our first run of students back in 2014, we tried the 892 mk3, and I absolutely hated it’s interface for configuring and routing audio. It has these push pots that can put you into all these crazy modes. You could be leaning over your

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR

Well stated. The only reason I've ever had to change anything in the control panel was to turn off real-time monitoring. I prefer the monitoring through ProTools so I know for sure what is being recorded. In fact. Kevin provided me with this snapshot. So all I had to do was loaded into the

I’m a huge fan of the scarlet. But if $499 isn’t in your budget, I wanted to hip you to the new Behringer U-Phoria that has just come out. This is in direct competition with the Scarlet, and has the same preamps that are in the X32 line. I’ve heard these preamps and they sound great. If you go

Hi, Why would you want to change the sample rate and bit rate in the interface as I normally I want to record at 24 or 32 bit at 96KHZ in Pro Tools so does this mean that I have to first setup the interface then setup Pro Tools for the same settings? This interface sounds like the one I wish

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR

Regarding the control panel. Certain things are usable. You can change the sample rate, you can change the clock source and you can change the monitoring presets. If there comes a time when I have to change anything I hook it to my windows computer make the changes save it as a preset and load

Re: audio interface with at least 8 inputs and outputs and some microphone preamps that are XLR

You’d have to change the sample rate because you’d have no idea what it is from the factory. Also, don’t worry about setting the settings at the store. Chad and I both have presets that are optimal for Pro Tools, and we can just give you that file. Kevin -- You received this message because
