I have the 6i6 on my cabin machine. I love it. The Fantom XR is connected via coax. The 6i6 actually had more outputs than the 8i8. Ditto what Matt said. I had the 6i6 before I upgraded to 18i20.

"Nomad Janitors"?!?
Is that a band name, or your cleaning service?

If it isn't a band name, it should be!

It was indeed a band name. Then it became simpleton guru .. People remembered the names .. isn't that what band names are supposed to do? I once went to a guitar clinic by a well known (internationally) guitar player. After the clinic there was the obligatory line of people parading by to meet him. Just as this one younger group walked up one of them said "Hey, there's one of the Simpleton Guru guys, we were at your show last night.".. I got a funny look from the clinician and always wondered if he went home and Googled to see who I was .. he kept looking at me funny for the rest of the time he hung around.  I think the name being easy to remember helped. /I didn't particularly like the Nomad Janitor name at the time, but it worked.
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

I was in a band once called "Captain Billy's Whiz Bang". The leader of the band only wanted to play Neil Young covers. YECTH!!!!!  The band was so bad that the drummer threw his sticks down and walked offstage in the middle of a song at a high school prom.

Then there was the band which called itself
FREE BEER
They had a hard time getting gigs because the club owners didn't want to advertise their name on the marquee for fear of being sued for false and misleading advertising when patrons discovered that the beer wasn't actually free, it was the band's name.....
I guess the band's marketing idea was their name would bring folks in the front door expecting free beer.....then stay to hear the band after they found out that beer was actually quite expensive.
Didn't last long.

I'm not really wanting to go full out PA huge for volume.

The original 20/20's. Right now I'm using a surround sound amp (100 watts @ 8 ohms) I picked up at on CL. Not ideal, but it was cheap!

Matt,
Sensational setup.
I'm intrigued with two items.
On top of the rack case beneath the lamp stand is a light of some description laying on its side with a USB cable attached? I'm trying to convince myself it's a Lava Lamp, but that ain't working.
Almost immediately in front of the left monitor, there's a small black stand with two chromed metal rods hanging from it?
Cheers
Trevor

Only one might be considered intriguing. Trevor, I never dreamed my little iPhone snapshot would be so scrutinized.
The metal rods are pens, hanging from a Brookstone magnet.
Now, OK, the other thing is unusual. That is a sterilizing chamber by Silverstein that is used for brass and woodwind mouthpieces and reeds. It is powered by USB, and the place I have the most ports is the powered hub for the computer.

Ah ha I would never have guessed either. I wondered if the metal rods were little bar chimes. And so much for the lava lamp theory, ha ha  What a nifty gadget.

Well, not chimes, but you did miss the tuning fork.

Wasn't trying to be too inquisitive, just wanted to know what goodies I needed to go out and buy Tuning fork? Yes I did miss that. I had initially wondered if those 'bar chimes' weren't some kind of fancy tuning fork. But more intrigued than ever, I went back and looked. On top of the RH monitor?

Steve, I like that you included the studio dog in the first pic.
As for the other two images, talk about the blues..
I'll record anywhere, and enjoy experimenting.
The top pic is my favorite place to work, but the others are just as much fun.
Cool. I must have missed those pics before.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
