What audio interface are you using?

[Peeved T-40]

In the market for one, thought I'd see what you guys are using and if you're happy with it

Focusrite Scarlett Gen 1 2i4 and Gen 2 4i4. Very happy with both.

 

[DirkP]

Tascam Model 12. Like it a lot.

 

[jallenbass]

Focusrite Scarlett Solo. I like it.

 

[FunkHead]

Boss Gt1000-Core, These are an amazing Multi-Effects pedal/Preamp/Interface.

 

[DirkP]

I prefer audio-interfaces like the Arturia Studio or the SPL Crimson or the Model 12 from Tascam that allow me to use it in a comfortable way without a computer. For me this is the most important feature. I hate operating a mouse while a heavy bass hangs around my shoulder. The Model 12 even allows recording without a computer.

Focusrite Saffire Pro 40. Yeah, old and discontinued, but still works like a charm and pretty inexpensive on the used market.

 

[Krisfield]

+1 Boss GT 1000Core. Record up to 6 channels including 2 dry, easy to use Reamping feature, great sounding AD/DA converter, Amps/Cabs/Effects.

I have been using an RME UCX for years and it has performed flawlessly. Not resource heavy and the monitoring/ digital mix software embedded in the system is super powerful. Drivers are rock solid on iOS, windows and even Linux.

 

[Bill Murray]

Universal Audio Apollo solo

 

[andruca]

At home, I either use a Zoom G3 or B3 for recording guitar or bass and use a Zoom R24 recorder as an interface for mic input (surprisingly warm mic preamps).

 

[Riff Ranger]

Presonus Audiobox USB 96, using Reaper rather than the DAW provided. It does the job and I’m used to it but I think I’d get a FocusRite something or other if I were to get something now.

 

[Jeff Hughes]

Audient ID14 mk 1 and mk 2. Yes, I bought a second because I liked it so much. The main feature I wanted was that it has an optical in for an additional 8 ADAT channels.

 

[Klangfarbe]

Since I'm a Cubase user, the Steinberg ur28m is my interface of choice.

Zoom U-24 - no frills, easy setup and sounds great. 3.5 years of nearly daily use (I practice through my computer mostly) and no problems. Currently on sale 38% off at Amazon:

[The Owl]

Steinberg/Cubase UR22. Had nothing but excellent results with this little box.

 

[instrumentlevel]

Focusrite Saffire Pro 40. Yeah, old and discontinued, but still works like a charm and pretty inexpensive on the used market.

Feel the same about my Focusrite Scarlett 18i6 (although they still make many other Scarletts). Use it every day for videoconferencing and practice. A couple of nice sounding preamps built in, and I have sufficient external preamps to record the band when we need. A good interface can last a long time!

 

[Bobthedog]

Focurite Clarett 2pre. Very happy with it and a good step up from the Scarlett 2i2pre 3rd hen I previously had and was also happy with at the time.

Steinberg UR12. It is simple, not real expensive and works well for what I need. I use it primarily for remote recording sessions using Cubasis software. I have done tracks onalmost two LPs as well as some other projects. Works great. I have a Digitech effect pedal that can also be used as an interface, but I'm not a fan of the effects. I figure if the engineer/producer wants to have effects, he can download them and add it in on his end.

The only problem I've had is it requires power from your computer to work. If you use an Ipad to record, the UR12 will drain your battery in about 25 minutes.

On a side bar Steinberg is now owned by Yamaha and the customer service is great.
