Hi guys, hope everyone is doing okay.
I need help and guidance from you. I am going on a trip to the US (I am from Brazil) and I am planning to buy some gear there. I already have some equip here, like some dynamic mics and a couple of condensers. I had a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 and I really liked it a lot, even though I could only record two channels at once (drum were kind of a challenge everytime - but it was pretty fun though).
Now I really want to step the game up a little bit. I have an analog mixer (a 10 channel Soundcraft from the 90's) and I was thinking about buying an interface that would allow me to use its pres to record more channels. So far so forth, I think the Focusrite 18i8 would be the best buy.
Do you guys think there is a better option for me, or do you think that the 18i8 is the best choice? My budget is around 2k dollars. The 18i8 would allow me to buy some other mics , as it is kinda cheap...and probably even a Macbook or a good PC. But then again, tell me what you think about it.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Caio.
