    This POS died on me after 3 months. It just stopped sending signal to DAW (I tried it on Pro Tools and Audacity). I can hear my bass and the playback in my headphones but it just doesn't record anything. I tried in on 2 PCs - same issues. NOT recommended.

  • @FandomFrank
    @FandomFrank Před 3 lety +1

    So... I may have done something stupid where I tried to use the interface and my mic before installing the drivers. I have it installed now, but because I attempted to use it before hand does that mean I ruined the interface and it'll never work again? I'm recording in audacity and it's just gone all wrong. It only picks up left channel for some reason and nothing from the mic at all. I'm using at Audio Technia AT2020 mic. I have phantom power on but it won't pick up my voice. I think I ruined it but I'm not sure...

    @popey59 Před 3 lety +1

    No mention of bit depth, this is a 16 bit interface, it's much easier to set levels with 24 bit especially for beginners. If you're buying an audio interface you probably want a step up from your computers 16 bit audio. Also the device is usb class compliant so is plug and play, drivers are only needed for ultra low latency.

      If your midi keyboard can connect with a TRS connection then it will work. But this audio interface does not have midi out connections, so if those are the only connections you keyboard has then it unfortunately won't work.

  • @TheJustseb72
    @TheJustseb72 Před 7 měsíci

    Hi, I've just ordered this audio interface after watching your great video. I make music just as a hobby, nothing big so I've been using very basic setup so far, a midi controller, computer and studio monitors connected directly via headphone input in the pc. But after upgrading my Mac mini to a new iMac M3, it turned out the sound on the latter one is oversaturated, especially in the high range, even in my studio headphones which makes all work, particularly mastering actually impossible (equaliser etc; had to low pass the whole final mix to achieve "sort of a neutral sound). Tried to connect the headphones via usb as I read it bypasses the sound card but not much changed. My question is, is the sound going through this audio interface more neutral and mastering friendly so I can apply the eq and other polishing stuff in a real time without low passing and other tricks to get an effect I exactly hope to get. Sorry for a lengthy comment but have literally nobody to ask and couldn't find unequivocal answer anywhere online. Thank you so much in advance; obviously liked and subscribed.
