| EMU 1616M vs Konnekt 24D vs Focusrite Saffire vs ECHO Audiofire 4
Ok Im down to these 4 Audio interfaces.. Having trouble to decide which one to choose..Need one by next week!
My chain is Rode Ntk - Grace 101 - (audio interface) - XP DUAL CORE - KRK RP8
and my priorities are
- Excellent A/D convertors (main priority)
- I only need 1/2 input channels as I record one channel at a time.
- Im not experienced with interfaces so i really want plug and play, driver stabilities
Monitors output
- Realtime effects like reverb while recording (DSP)
Im leaning towards the new EMU 1616M PCI at the moment as Konnekt users are having millions of problems (and im inexperienced so imagine me!) Focusrite Saffire (the original, not LE) seems like a good interface and I think the Echo Audiofire 4 does not have the same convertors as the Audiofire 12 or 8. I really only need 1/2 channels like i mentioned.
So what do you think I should go for? below the 800 price range.
