| Phonic
I would like to start out by saying, this is not my first time around the block. I've been doing this for a while. Here is a list of units I've either owned or tried.
1. Isis.... this was my first card a long time ago.
2. Yamaha i88x
3.Mackie Onynx Satellite
4.Konnekt 24 D
5.Motu 8 pre
I'm presently recording with the Phonic Helix 12 firewire MK II
The biggest problem I've had with the other products was the driver stability.With the Phonic,my system never crashes and I always get very good recordings, I do use different pre amps for vocals but that's it. I've never had one problem with this unit.
There is a school of thought out there that says you have to have very expensive equipment to sound good, that's a big myth. The most expensive is not always the best and if you're any good at all, you shouldn't have to rely on expensive gear to make you sound good.
A lot of time it's all about a little tweaking and a lot creativity and patience.
