    I have analog synths with high level output and other have lower output levels. I don't see any sense to have no gain on the input module, to get a decent level in the DAW. But for what are the buttons on the input module?

    • @StarskyCarr
      @StarskyCarr 4 часа назад

      Its standard for ADAT expansions, unless you look for ones with pre-amps. you may be running through a desk so can add the level there. The buttons are for pad and stereo link.

    Could you please explain to me why you would choose to use the Focusrite over the Audiofuse 16rig? I have a Focusrite 18i8 and I was told by my Sweetwater sales engineer that I would be better off with the Audiofuse 16rig because my studio has several synths. (Obviously, your studio is synth heavy as well). Are you choosing the 18i8 because there are more preamps? I'm confused when it comes to interfaces, mixers, routing, etc. Doing my best to learn, thank you for any info you could share.

    • @StarskyCarr
      @StarskyCarr 18 часов назад

      I got the 18i8 for the videos when I’m not in the studio. For the studio I would choose the audio rig if you have a lot of stuff. It was just about portability and ease of use for simple applications with the 18i8.

    Had Arturia come out with these (and the AudioFuse 16Rig) earlier, I might actually have seriously considered them. Instead I went with a MOTU 24Ai, and recently acquired another one (still on its way). For one thing, you get an IEC C14 plug, and you get 48 inputs in 2U. The special DB25-to-TRS snakes are a pain, though, and rather pricey.
