Hello all,
I have a small basement studio that serves as my main recording space.
I run Pro Tools 8 LE, with a 2 channel M-Box on an old Mac G5 that is located in a different space, far from the basement.
I capture the instruments in the basement with a 16 input Yamaha console that I believe to be junk for recording purposes, and then send it from the STEREO OUTPUTS to each channel of my MBox, right & left respectively.
I do not like this setup and would much rather have a large input interface to replace my 2 channel MBox so I can run individual XLR's from the basement to my computer, or to a PRO console that I would eventually buy & locate at my control room...
M-Audio's Profire 2626 Interface has been brought to my attention and I am considering it as a replacement for my Yamaha/MBox A-D converter so I can get a bunch of 'clean' signals into Pro Tools individually, 'uncolored' by the preamp tone of the Yamaha board for example...
Does anyone here use the above referenced interface?...how does it play with Pro Tools?
Can you chime in if you have any advice, suggestions, critiques, etc.?
I'm starting from scratch and routing/patch bays/etc. are not my strong points, though I am all ears for any recommendations, as I said before.
Thanks in advance!
