Thank you Phil, Don’t worry, your post was not judgmental in any way. I am using my MOTU to record a mixdown of live sessions of electronic music performed on an allen&heath gl2800. I am recording the master LR output and four stereo subgroups as stems. The phase alignment of the master LR is im...

I can tell you I tested:

Focusrite Saffire dsp 24
Soundcraft mtk 22
Soundcraft mtk 12
Behringer umc1820

And none of them showed phase alignment problems

I agree: if MOTU could clarify this, it would be best. However, I do not think this is going to happen anytime soon. If you wonder what is the phase relationship of the various channel, from my tests I can say that there is a difference between front inputs (with preamplifier) and rear inputs. odd p...

Dear Phil, thank you for your reply.

As stated earlier, I am not concerned with microphone placement.

Whether the problem is relevant or not, is a matter of what you use the interface for.

I am just trying to understand whether this is a fault in my unit or a design flaw.

You a are right, probably the low frequency tightness problem is just in my head… ;) On the other hand, the high frequency difference is there, and can be measured. Whether it is relevant or not, that depends on usage, but my point here is to investigate whether the technical issue of phase misalign...

Hi, Thanks everyone for your replies. I agree this would not be an issue if you were recording a stereo mic pair in any configuration. However, if you’re trying to record a stereo signal from a mixer through inputs 1&2, this becomes an issue as all mono components are misrepresented in terms of ...

Dear fellow MOTU 828es users, I am experiencing phase issues on my MOTU 828es: when I feed the same mono signal to inputs 1&2 (front) I should get two identical mono signals in both channels. However, when I analyse them with MOTU Audio Tools Phase Analysis in rectangular view, it shows a line t...
