I've always been a fan of MOTU gear - still have a couple Firewire units of theirs (a Traveler MK1 that still works perfectly for my portable rig, and an 828mk3 with a dead firewire port that I have connected through ADAT to my RME Fireface).

just an idea.
but audient (who make highly regarded big studio mixing consoles. ) have issued the inexpensive audient evo.
and included their highly regarded mic pre in it ??.

ymmv of course. might be worth a test drive before buying.
just make sure , like i always do, you can return it to the store if it dont play nice with your computer rig.
also audient have the pricier id range.
see audient.com
just an idea.
ps youll find audient users on gearslutz.com where loads
of recording people hang out. lots of usb audio interface gear reviews.

all best,
oldmuso.

ps just saw your M2 post.
hope it works well for you.
ive been looking at the M2, but decided to wait for usb4
to come out which is gonna be blazing fast apparently.


I've got an old DDA console which was built by the Audient guys, sounds killer! Excellent mic pre's in it, and a really good EQ.
