Sooo i am going to upgrade my desktop mic to an XLR one (currently using an USB one) and i need to be able to have a SPDIF out on the interface (SPDIF in is also welcome).
Requirements:
- TRS/XLR outs
- SPDIF out
- Decent DA/AD conversion
- Small-ish form factor (no rack stuff)
- good price/performance
Main problem i have is the USB power on my PC ports is dirty - grounding issues.
What i found thus far that fit the bill and might bypass that USB issue is:
Focusrite Scarlett 6i6
Focusrite Scarlett 8i6
On the fence for the:
Motu UltraLite-mk3
Motu MicroBook IIc
Antelope Audio Zen Go Synergy Core
Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6
Accepting recommendations and advice.
