thanks malcolm/hegehog...
i'm also looking at the new yamaha firewire mixeers.
but dont know much anout them.
my mic pre's work with other products so they will work with anything with a standard audio line input.
basically its a trick, the mic pre i build.
ultra clean cos it uses the same ultra low noise transistor you would find in a mega buks console. a mat02 from analog devices instead of yer common ten for a buk transistors you would find in cheap mixers...lol
ive looked at the onyx but still have a bit of a bad taste from a vlz i used once. which i found harsh in the eq.
i wish someone made a cheap box with 10 line inputs that did the a to d conversion with good convertors and sent the 10 mic channels over firewire to be recorded on 10 seperate tracks on the pc. then also had 10 outputs to take 10 groups out of the pc over firewire for stem mixing plus a stereo mix out from pc over firewire. looks to me like the maudio might do the job.
linear technology have nice op amps and analog devices to make cheap summing mixers. if you want to build a nice clean cheap summing mixer 10 X 2 , you just need a few op amps for each input channel and the stereo sum at the end of the chain.
yep only the best for mum.
i'll be a basket case when i loose her.
everyone else in her generation on my side and my wifes side have gone now. been a bad 10 years.
its the cycle of life.
wrote a song about it...had lots of play on the net.
songs called "Whole of London town is Cryin".
done in a small studio that helped me a few years back useing that vlz i dont like much.
masters a bit noisy cos it was a tape dub to mp3.
cos i didnt want to drag the master out of the bank.
