I’m in the market for a new interface, and would like some suggestions. I have a PC, USB connection, and use Cakewalk Sonar.
I’m looking for a device that has at least two mic inputs, and two quarter-inch inputs – in short, something I could record four parts at a time. I don’t need any more inputs.
The most I’d be willing to spend is probably $800 or so.
I’m reading good things about the Focusrite Scarlet 6i6, but I own an AudioBox and a FireBox (both by PreSonus), and have a feeling the Scarlet is no better. What would you recommend that is higher end with better preamps?
I’ve read good things about the RME Babyface, which retails for around $750, and the SPL Creon, which retails for around $600. The Creon is essentially a version of the SPL Crimson with fewer features. The Crimson’s added features generally don’t interest me, though one drawback of the Creon is that there’s no MIDI connection! Though annoying, I suppose I could use one of my PreSonus interfaces when that need arises. The Crimson preamps get high ratings – I believe the Creon has the same ones.
What other interfaces at this general price point would you recommend I check out?
All answers welcome, Thanks.
