can be bought from a vast range, and then you could just add an ADC/DAC which will drive phones, amps etc. Plenty of non-USB mixers (with multi XLR and jack inputs) that have *pan, EQ, loop returns etc. There is no reason to limit mixer choice to one with USB output though. If budget is a concern, and if you don't need full mixer capabilities*, you can buy something like this I know, not the best OS for this stuff, but I've been a Unix user for 25 years, and I'm getting too old to relearn everything in a new OS.Īudient ID14 mkII looked good and the headphone output seemed OK to use it for some weeks while I buy the rest of the stuff, but seems you need the Audient software to be able to use the device properly (in example no way to use both outputs without the software), so now I'm scratching my head at what other options to consider. A second input and support for Hi-Z could be nice but not really needed. Have at least one input with 48V phantom power.
Have two balanced outputs, one for active monitors, one for a headphone amp. My doubt is about what audio interface to buy.
SMSL SP200 seems a good option for the headphone amplifier at a reasonable price, and for active speakers, well, I don't use the speakers for music listening, more like for audio listening while studying languages and stuff like that, so anything will do. A balanced headphone amp (probably not really needed, but I have a balanced cabled for the HD800 anyways and I'll love to try it) What I think I will need to replace everything and make a decent upgrade of my setup is: I don't do any serious stuff with the equipment: I use it for audio/video meetings, recording myself from time to time with no need of professional quality (podcast/twitch stuff for like 2 viewers) and listening to music. Perhaps it was the time to update the setup anyway.
Electric company took them to try to repair them, but probably I will need to buy new equipment. I used the Marantz as an amp for both the speakers and the headphones, except for some audio/video calls with the company laptop, in that case I just plugged the DT770 to the Behringer out of convenience.īoth the Behringer and the Marantz died in a power surge recently. Yeah, quite a strange setup, made mostly from bargains I bought during many years. The Marantz was connected to my personal PC, the Behringer to both my PC and company laptop with a USB 2.0 switch that as far as I know it is fully passive (no power taken from the computers or a power brick). Hi everyone, I can use some help deciding what to buy.Ĭhinese condenser mic that needs 48V Phantom
