Hi all,
Man, I haven't visited this forum since 2007! Anyways, I have a question about audio interfaces, particularly rack-mounted ones. Here's my "dilemma". I have been using the Presonus FireStudio Project audio interface for years (since 2007 actually!). I've uploaded an image of it. It's on the fritz, but got excellent use out if. I always like the rack-mount form factor, and what has been nice about this audio interface is that all of the mic/instr inputs are on the FRONT of the device. I never have to climb under and behind my music desk when recording multiple instruments at once (as in live-recording of a singer, multiple guitars, basses, and sometimes mic'ing up drums)
Now, I'm seeing new rack-mounted interfaces, and most of them have just a couple of mic/instrument inputs on the front, but most of them are at the back. Is there a good way, like a patch bay, or something, that can help route all of the back Mic/Instr ports to the front of my rack, so I can plug-in a guitarist, vocalist, etc?
Thanks in advance.
