440 Forums _ Getting Started _ Motu Ultralite Vs Mbox 2 Pro

Écrit par : Maddcow dim. 13 juil. 2008, 10:57

Hi all.
A new member here and also a new MacBook Pro user.

Basically, I'd love some input as to which interface is generally better in terms of latency and overall performance: the Ultralite or the Mbox 2 Pro.

I'm a sax/wind synth player wanting to reduce outboard hardware and consolidate as much as possible with my MacBook Pro, audio/midi interface and software for live performance. I want to start using softsynths for my wind controller and also use software to add FX to my sax......whilst also using software to produce and send a mix to FOH and also a separate mix for my in-ear monitors. However, I also want an interface which is small and portable enough to carry around in my laptop bag with the MacBook Pro.

I'd ideally like 4 inputs minimum and at least 3 outputs and the two interfaces I've mentioned appear to be the most suited for the job, but would love some feedback from real-life users. I've also looked at the Presonus Firebox but have noticed that quite a number of users appear to have problems with these??

Any thoughts folks?

Cheers
Gary

I would suggest to consider the RME Fireface 400. Gives unlimited routing possibilities as it comes with a software matrix mixer, very low latency, great sound, bus powered, two of the eight inputs have phantom power, two are switchable to instrument level.

all three are ample for what you're suggesting you need to do, and more later. the MOTU unit is great, but the Mbox has a nice software suite with it.
the RME will set you back twice the gelt, so it's a bigger bite. for my money, the MOTU unit.

I notice that the TC Electronics Konnekt Live is promoted as being specially suited for live performance.

Any thoughts on this one?
