For the Moog Low Pass (isn't it mono by the way?) you will need an output from your mixer too. That is if you wanna feed it with anything from the sequencer. |

Live 7 on WinXP
AMD 4800+ dual core
2 gig of RAM
I'm ready to put around 1000 $ for the sound card.
And yes, the LP is mono, thanks for pointing this out 
As for the outputs, the MK3 has plenty. |

I think the best option is to get an ultralite & a fireface from a store near you and try them at home
this way you know best what works with your system and what not.

Uuuuh, I don't quite understand, I know by looking at the fireface connectivity that it doesn't have enough inputs to suit my needs, why would I need to try it ?
Maybe I'm missing something ? |

sorry but I thought 4 stereo ins would be enough...
you can also think about the motu 828 if you dont need a small interface. https://soundcloud.com/hazak

oops. you're right. I've mixed the ins and outs
For mixers I've heard the Macike Onyx range sounds quite good.
Psytiax, that's about right though you can use the Ti as VST and save the physical connection, or use a digital connection and save yourself D/A stange. |

I have a Mackie Onyx 1620 which i keep in a closet out of shame, i was really unstatisfied with this product, it did not live up to my expectations for a mackie product.
First of all the 3-4 "tape out" is not in balance, ie more comes out the left than the right. Second the volume values of the sepperate channels does not seem to be similar at all, more like totally individual. I have a friend who had the same mixer/problem - he sold his

How does it work to just split the input plugs? So you have to "inputs" pr input? Will it fuck around with inpendance or anything like that?
Cause... you arent using all of your inputs at the same time, mostly? Especially when your just having synths connected anyways...
Much cheaper to buy a cable split than a mixer?
