Author: admin
Date: 20-Mar-20

Here's our March 2020 roundup of USB audio interfaces featuring 8 microphone pre-amps under €500 Euros. This is not every interface out there, but a choice of commonly available traditional interfaces in this category (8 mic pre's + Line/instrument inputs for guitars/basses). In this video we show you the common USB interface choices most people can easily obtain in their territory; we run through each unit's features, and we compare them & choose both a Budget Winner & Overall Winner for your consideration.

Candidates for the list must include the following features:

• Eight Microphone pre-amps
• Line/Instrument level inputs for recording electric guitars/basses direct into amp modelling plugins
• Traditional rack/tabletop design easy to use/understand (no weird/fancy hybrid mixer interfaces etc)
• Separate dedicated volume controls for BOTH the speaker output & headphone output
• Under €500 Euros
