Ui24R : A bit confusing for the DAW channel routing

5 years ago

I mainly use this for live recording and streaming performance. The feature is fantastic value for the money. You get everything you need as stage box and live digital mixer. The pre-amp is fair, not the best but really enough for demo or live situation.

Not the big fan of the digitec channel 1 & 2's guitar preamp, some of the preset shockingly much louder then other, so I suggest you pull down the gain before try them. USB record and playback is a charm, make sure to use very fast reading USB.

The reverb and delay are handy, I use them mostly for live vocals along with the parametric EQ section which also very nice and intuitive. Gate section also powerful for drums.

One of the confusing I had at first place (maybe because I'm new to this) is the DAW channel routing that have 10 digit jump. So for example when the analog input in the mixer is on channel 1, then on the DAW it will be input number 11, etc.

The best thing of this gear in my opinion is the web-browser mixing desk. Cause I hate the mixing apps that regularly needs to be update. Might not suits professional studio, but works fine for live and demo recording.
