motu 828 preamps

Post by chrismichael »

When recording mics onto the computer:

I don't hear any difference between the PREAMP LINES and the OTHER LINES.

Do I have to run the mics into the PREAMPS, then OUT, and then IN to the OTHER LINES?

Not at all. Just use the mic pre and record from that channel straight into your DAW.

The preamp outs are there in case you want to run through a compressor, EQ or some other processor before going into the computer. No need to use them if you're not doing that.
