Seeking advice for a new interface for MacBook Pro.
I think Apogee Duet would do it but almost $1k here in Australia. I don't think Apogee One can do what is needed.
- Have 2 x input jacks that can both be switched between mic and guitar input. So you have the options - guitar+guitar, guitar+mic, mic+mic.
- Have 2 x headphone outs so when 2x guitars plugged in, both guitarists hear both guitars, including the backing tracks already laid down in Logic Pro X and the plugin effects being applied to each guitar.
- While recording 2x guitar cabs in studio via 2x mics, the backing tracks already laid down in Logic Pro X can be sent to PA in the room as a virtual rhythm section for the 2x guitarists playing through guitar amps/cabs.
- MacBook Pro only has Thunderbolt ports, so maybe USB - TB conversion cable needed. Native TB interface possibly more stable and faster.
- No interference beteeen the inerface's software and Logic Pro X. Just want it to route the signals and let Logic Pro X do all the mixing
- Having iOS & OSX compatibility a bonus. Be good if can also be used with iPad via Lightning connection.
- Very importantly, proven rock solid reliability when using with MacBook Pro
