Apollo Twin and Behringer Ultralink Pro mx882

[BaconEgg]

Hello all,

I use an Apollo Twin in combination with a Neve 1073LB 500 series. This works well, but I often have to change XLR cables, since I use many different microphones.

A Behringer Ultralink Pro mx882 would solve a lot;

Microphone 1 --> Behringer Ultralink Pro Left channel --> Neve 1073LB --> Apollo Twin
Microphone 2 --> Behringer Ultralink Pro Left channel --> Neve 1073LB --> Apollo Twin
Microphone 3 --> Behringer Ultralink Pro Left channel --> Neve 1073LB --> Apollo Twin
Microphone 4 --> Behringer Ultralink Pro Right channel --> Apollo Twin
Microphone 5 --> Behringer Ultralink Pro Right channel --> Apollo Twin
Avalon Di --> Behringer Ultralink Pro Right channel --> Apollo Twin

In this way I can also record 2 microphones at the same time for a guitar amplifier, for example. Or bass guitar DI at the same time as a microphone in front of the amplifier.

The setup above works well, but I'm afraid it might be at the expense of sound quality. The Neve and Apollo are of course a lot more expensive than the Behringer. Therefore my question:

Does anyone here have experience with the Behringer Ultralink Pro? Does the Behringer cause quality loss, or is this nil?

Looks good... from what I see, quality loss is null (or virtually inexistent). Behringer is a great brand. I don't have this model in particular, but I think it would work well in your application.

Heck, even Walmart sells it!

Why do you have to change XLR cables? - Microphones all use the same XLR unless there really old Hi-Z TS microphones.

You are not going to notice any degradation of audio from the Behringer, the Apollo or the Neve.
