MOTU 828 Mk III Hybrid 4-stars Reviews

Nice performance for the money

I bought this unit to get a good amount of base inputs. Low latency and the ability to connect with both usb or firewire is very handy too (most stable with usb). I later added inputs by connecting other devices to it which is also very easy to do. The quality of the inputs are descent and is enough for the most common recording situations and instruments.

High end

Not much to say it does what it says, in my case it was a bit picky with wich USB slot it would work on, and it really did not like any other hardware on the same bus, but that could differ on other system i'll guess. Otherwise I'm really happy with this and the preamps sounds really good with my bass guitar, I haven't use them for anything else for now but I think they will do magic stuff with other sources as well.

The mixer software is easy to use but a bit awkward workflow in my case, but nothing impossible to work with but then I only use it if I need some eq or compressor/limiting when recording or maybe doing mixes and return them in to the computer for further editing etc, and the price was for the quality really good I think.
