So a few days ago I posted a thread asking questions about a UAD Apollo interface. I "thought" this was the interface I was going to go with. After doing a little more lite reading, I am not so sure this is the right interface for me. The huge benefit seems to be the onboard dsp if you are using their plugins, but the price is high. not that I am looking at a 500 unit, but looking to stay under 2000.
So now I am just trying to research my options.
To recap my current set up is old.
BLA Signature modded Digi003 running on (please don't flame me) Pro Tools LE....
I plan to stay in Pro Tools, regardless of anyone trying to talk me out of it, with a perpetual license of the newest version of Pro Tools.
I record for my own enjoyment, not pro, and I don't need a ton of mic pres.
I currently run my AXE FX III via spdif, a sans amp bass DI, a Fractal X Load, and 2 warm audio mic pres for when I may want to record my cab mic'ed. I like to leave all of it connected so I am ready to go when inspiration hits.
All of my drums are through superior or EZ.
Looking for a good transparent interface, with good quality conversion, must have Spdif connection. and I "think" I may be looking for something thunderbolt?
Oh yes, this all runs on a Mac Mini Quad core i7.
So far after moving on from the Apollo interest, I am thinking about an Apogee Ensemble
but would love to know what recommendations anyone has.
Thanks
