I have been sing a 8i6 3rd gen for years. never had a popping or noise issue.

Hi, this might have been asked before, but maybe I am using the wrong terminology. I was wondering if anyone knows of a device that can split out the audio track containing the dialogue from BR/DVD and sent it to a different device. All the players and TV's have optical outs. What I am trying...

crappy fostex studio headphones.

I have a 3rd gen. I am very happy with the headphone output. Great interface. Miles better than the old NI Komplete Audio 6 I used to use. Great drivers.

Sorry. I deleted it. I switched to a scarlette 6i6. No issues so far. It uses the same drivers as the Clarett. It seems more than powerful enough to drive my headphones and speakers/monitors. The clarette is a very nice interface if you are using mics and recording live . I was defiantly able...

Oh.. yeah.. bring on the sweet HD music Jeffery baby!!

sorry. back on topic. i think The Kills live is some great rock.

I just watched that White Strips video not long ago. It is really good. RE: EM has no soul. I don't agree. You have different types of artist that make different stuff. Some are more commercially oriented than others. But some are really really good IMO and have lots of soul. The ones I can...

For anyone interested in 80s MTV era films that have good music. I can recommend Walter Hill's "Streets of Fire". Its a classic case where the soundtrack is better than the movie. Things to keep in mind about the movie. It's basically a very strange combination of film noir meets serial comic...

Hi, just wanted to ask, has anyone been able to see any hardware breakdown of the Scarlett 8i6 model? Can they confirm the headphone and internal DAC is same as Solo or 2i2? I am assuming the internals are a little different as it has to provide much more output and input.

Baauer.. good stuff.. I like...

Thanks for the great review. Just curious. How old is this Cirrus chip? Is this the same chip that has been used in old interfaces for years?

Hi, what kind of recording are you doing? How much vocals and/or acoustic instruments? I just went through some testing of interfaces. Things to keep in mind are drivers, stability of drivers. How long do you plan to use the interface for? How much do you want to spend? What are you using the...

Posting for posterity in case anyone finds it useful. I did some tests between the new Clarett and a 10+ yr old NI Komplete 6 to see what the pre-amps can actually do. The test is on a nylon string guitar through an AKG condenser. Same player, same room, same mic. Part 1 is Clarett, part 2 is...

Thanks. I have a Clarett 2 pre and also my old NI Komplete 6. I am debating to return the Clarett as I can't tell if those supposed better high end pre-amps are doing anything of value that I paid for. Also, the headphone monitor output seems much quieter than my old K6. On the K6 at 50% is...

Hi, sorry to ressurect an old thread. But just wondering, what is a good way to test whether the pre-amps and DAC converters in Focusrite are better than an older interface? The link you posted seems to refer to a person comparing interfaces while recording real drums. Does that mean you would...

My own theory.. based on my recollection of growing up with LPs and being mesmerized by LPs and great sounding albums and my collection of 1,000 LPs of which all got thrown in the garbage in the 90s . a) You had different ears when you were younger than you do now. You perhaps heard more...

Hello, thank you so much for the videos and post. I am going through them just trying to learn and understand if a difference of -85 vs -95 of a noise floor is worth $700 .

I should put a shout out to Juliette Commagere .. her first record was really amazing. Shes Ry Cooders daughter in law. I first heard her on his I Flathead record and then looked her up. Became a fan of the records.
