Current set up would be
iMac, Maudio Axiom 27, firewire solo, blue mic spark, beyer DT770pro and AKG 240 studio headphones. Running on Logic 9.
For some reason, my firewire solo had some pop and click issues when I updated my iMac to Lion. Tried troubleshooting it, reinstalling the drivers doesn't help. I tried on my macbook, (OS leopard), doesn't seems to have such issues. Guessing it would be a OS compatibility issue. I've been using my solo for quite some time now, so might as well upgrade it!
haha, thanks for the reply.
I mainly do recording single tracks at home so I/O isn't an issue with me. I just want a good and decent preamp and converter for my track by track recording. I'll be doing midi on my Axiom so midi inputs aren't an issue to me as well. I mainly monitor my mix on headphone too. Haha. One sounds good to me in that sense.
I have considered Focusrite saffire pro 14. There are more I/O and I read online that Focusrite and Apogee uses the same converter but their circuitry are different thus the differences in quality.
Further more the duet 2 is redesigned according to the Symphony (or thats what their support side told me). It is way better but way more expensive. haha.
I'm currently looking at the Apogee One just for single track recording. If there is a need for more I/O, I'll just grab a saffire pro 14
.
2 different sounds and more I/O rather than getting a Duet with limited I/O.
Differences in One and Duet would be the sampling rate, One only samples at 48khz but again I'm not recording for audiophiles
just my demos for my own composition!
