Hello,I mainly mix mp3 files, but also need two microphones and one aux input (to plug in the computer of the second person that also prepared part of the music).
Mixing In Mixcraft 8
I consider two options :
- Buy an external mixer like Behringer Xenyx Q802USB or Yamaha AG06. Mixing is done by hardware. I do not process the external sources in Mixxx, and I have the benefit of simplicity and of no-latency.
- Buy a USB audio interface with 4 inputs like Behringer UMC404HD or Steinberg UR242. Mixing is done by Mixxx.
- Pros :
- I can apply effects on the external inputs, especially the mics
- I control all the mixing levels on the computer, single interface/controller
- Recordings do include the mics (Yamaha AG06 seem to allow this too with the loopback switch. Do others ?)
- Cons :
- Audio quality — would there be an audible difference due to the additional A2D conversion of mics/aux
- Latency — is it so bad that the people will hear me speaking and then hear me through the speaker system ?
- Resource usage — am I going to exhaust my system ? What is the critical resource : CPU/RAM/USB ? What hammers them the most : effects / number of channels / high sample rate / resampling ?
Would you recommend me not going the route #2 ?
I read in the manual that mics over USB-sound-adapters are to be avoided, but there isn't anything else (you can't plug a PCI board in a laptop), is there ?
Would you recommend me some hardware better than others ?
Are some USB interfaces much better than others in terms of latency (Behringer/Scarlett/Steinberg…) ? [I read your recommendation towards Roland Rubix 24, I'd need a 44, bulkier than the UR242]
Is the USB throughput a bottleneck ? (I only found M-Audio M-Track 8x4M to have USB-C)
