Yup. If you don't add any processing yourself then you should be hearing the file accurately :)

:facepalm: It's a shame really, it's just never really caught on & the K-system has been largely overtaken by LUFS as a standard measurement. Still better than relying on Peak/RMS but it's doesn't imply any judgement of how loud things should be, just tells you how loud they are.

What type of meter are you using? Peak (dbFS)? K Scale (mentioned in your original post)?

Just out of interest - why would you route the sub-groups into the interface? I would wager a fair amount that the pre-amps in the interface are nicer than those in the Behringer desk. Lower noise, lower distortion, more gain, a pad, and you wouldnt have to run your signal through two input...

Don't know if anyone else has the same experience, but compared to most commercial material the K scales are quite a conservative mesure of loudness (as in, they want things quite a lot less squashed than a lot of commercial material is currently). Seems to limit their usefulness as a...

That is my understanding/experience. It'll vary between different models and manufacturers though, so it's best to check each model before you put your cash on the line.

Sounds like a nightmare - restarting in the middle of recording!? No thanks.

I think Windows 10 is being rolled out as a 'Recommended' update for most windows 7 users as of next year - it's being pushed pretty hard. Looks like it'll be useful to know what will and won't work, I have very low hopes for my interface. Windows 10 will be made an automatic ?recommended...

Good luck! Hours of fun playing with (in)compatability mode! :)

Last I checked anyway...they're constantly 6 months behind OS upgrades :(

For the record - the MOTU 828 mk3/ 828x both have dual ADAT.

No drivers for El Capitan yet :(

Usually, if an interface has a combined total of 16 inputs, you can expect it to be able to send all 16 at the same time into your computer - most of the big brands work this way (focusrite, behringer, tascam etc) but not all, so make you do a thorough check one last time before you buy. The...

I use mono mixing a lot - but it's a contentious issue around here. Looking at the waveforms (presumably you are zooming in) and seeing them look lined up by eye does not guarantee they are 100% 'in phase' with each other. Using two mics with different frequency responses is going to give you...

All musicians have an equal amount of trouble with click tracks in my experience - some can, some can't. It's a knack that tends to come with a persons playing ability being at certain level. (I'm talking playing gigs & with others here, not practising those two licks til they're shit-hot in...

This. It very much depends why you wanted to print the effects in the first place. If you can add it as a plugin on the way in, you can add it as a plugin later and be much more flexible with things.

So you're looking for a Windows 10 compatible interface - how many inputs? How many outputs (in case you want to feed crazy stuff to the audio inputs on your synths etc)? Any preference for USB/Thunderbolt/Firewire? "Won't break the bank" is quite vauge, what's the actual budget?

Getting your vocals 'ready' for a performance will be pratising singing, rather than buying fx units. You'll probably want to use a compressor as an insert rather than an aux (jus sayin....). You can use either rack units or stompboxes in either way providing you know how to cable it up. If...

Are we talking online only? Playing gigs is the traditional method of getting people to hear your music - very dependant on the local music scene where you live though, but you tend to meet interesting people who might know other interesting people if you play enough of them. Word of mouth...

I use an Se Electronics ribbon and both sides are more or less identical. Fantastic cheapo mic, considering getting another one next year so I can use them for M/S pairs. Could just be a Royer thing as they seem to be the only people making a fuss about it.
