Sound is great. Build is great. My struggle was with the afx2daw plugin setup. I was a bit frustrated with the process because it wasnt clear to me. However, after getting the plugins sorted out and now up and running I am moderately satisfied. The restarting of my computer, while connected to the interface surprised me. My setup has been working fine for about a month now. Fingers crossed.
I have owned a couple audio interfaces and this is by far the best one yet. The pre-amps sound amazing with extreme clarity and definition unlike anything I have ever heard before. It was like taking a blanket off of my speakers, I was honestly blown away. The build of the body is incredible and can withstand nearly any situation you can throw at it. Another thing I have been blown away with is the DSP & FPGA processing.... zero latency, and the Antelope plug-ins sound amazing. Highly recommend this unit, Antelope has proven they can craft an interface that can compete with the best of them no doubt!
This thing is like Wow!! Honestly I'm so happy I upgrade to this power studio machine, this is more than an interface, it is a the Ultimate gear you need to take your studio to that professional level, whenever you think about interface think Antelope Audio, you won't be disappointed.
I have been using the Antelope Audio Discrete 8 for a few months now and am very impressed by it. The AD/DA is world class, mic pres are even better. I have recorded clients on Cello, Vocals, Saxophone, Clarinet, Guitar and more and it does them all with stellar quality and life like "Analog, console grade, 3D sound quality.” The plugins also sound really good and of coarse take the load off of your cpu quite a bit with 8 channels. I pare it with an MPC X which also has 8 channels and it works beautifully. The ability to use this on both Mac and PC was also important to me which I could not find with other companies. Highly recommended.
There are a bunch of good things I could say about Discrete 8, but the biggest has been how the low end of my mixes has improved William E. Los Angeles
Solo tengo cosas buenas para decir de esta interface. Desde que la compré se convirtió en el corazón de mi estudio. A parte el Edge solo es en complemento ideal, y ni que decir del Bitwig que está increíble. 100% recomendada!
