The only way if you have your game on playback some reason it dose doble sound in battlefield 2042 and other game and dosent matter what I do dosent ajust the sound for obesity for my music even I I do have it on mix b
Perfect timing. My Revelator io24 just arrived in the mail!
Been waiting for this one for awhile and I'm stoked you finally were able to find the time to put it out. I got interested in this device, despite having a perfectly good Motu M4, almost solely because of your enthusiasm, and when Bandrew threw in a good recommendation, it sealed the deal. I've been happily using it since Sweetwater sold me the demo unit they had that with a $20 coupon I had, just made the deal impossible to pass up. But I have not really used it to it's full potential as I waited for someone I trusted to really break it down in old guy palatable fashion. So thank you thank you :) Oh yeah...definitely can confirm you want to have a Fethead or such with an SM7B. Definitely some noise without it.
the best timing on this guide, considering I just got my revelator dynamic installed yesterday and found myself a bit confused on the documentation for it. (not a knock against the docs, I just find real-time visual guides easier to parse than pages of text with images). looking forward to really getting into the weeds on the submixes this weekend, and give into studio one to fiddle with EQ
Great review! Been loving my IO24 for a while now. Confirming there is YT video out there that shows how to eq your mic using Studio One. Real simple stuff. Record a sample then apply same FAT channel and play around. You can then export the profile and load into the Universal software which is brilliant!
Even though I'm not in the market for new gear I love all these videos.
Very thorough
Great video just to confirm you can record into studio one setup your fat channel then export it for use in universal control.
I really appreciate all your videos! So much knowledge and experience!!! I have to say, probably to my ears, you always sound "muddy", like more treble is needed, but since I don't have my eardrums it might be only me :)
After setting up and saving your settings in the Revelator Universal Control software do you need to run the app every time you use the mic/interface? Or do the settings save to the device itself? Do the presets "stick" if you move the mic/interface from one computer to another? Does loopback work without the app running in the background? Thanks!

The presets are stored on the device, so they will stay even if you connect it to another computer. You don't even have to have Universal Control installed on that other computer. I got a Revelator specifically for this reason - to have a mic with an audio chain on my work computer where I'm not allowed to install drivers or software. When you use it on a computer where you don't have UC installed you're limited to what can be changed with the physical controls on the mic.
Is still had an noise issue from io24/44?
Wish this was available on other PreSonus devices. Seriously hate using Voicemeeter but it's my only option for now till I can buy a mix create
well done. good job revealing the untapped capabilities of consumer grade home studio equipment that the technicaly capable yet financially immature budding artist working hard at creating their own studio setup are stuck.
I plan on mounting one underneath my desk so the front panel on the io44 would be more ideal along with the added IO, have you found any quality differences between the two for streaming though? I use a Shure SM7B. Currently have the GoXLR but not a big fan of how much of my desk it takes up.
Great overview! Wow thats a nice sounding mic you have. Is that one of the presonus mics?
Wish they still had 3 virtual outputs as opposed to 2 and a mic output, had less headaches back then.
Another good tech guide. Am I the only one that kept getting distracted by the CN shirt and how it made me think of his hair looking like Lee Kanker's from Ed, Edd, n Eddy?
i see that there are ways to de-tune(pitch down), but are there ways to pitch up? Thank you!
Hey man, been watching your videos for a minute now and was wondering. Could you do a video on the io24 and how you could use it in a 2 pc setup? Thanks.

IO24 has no extra inputs so you can run a line out to your second PC via the main outs, but there’s nothing to directly bring another PC into it for dual PC
So I would actually like to use this interface when I'm on the road but I'm wondering if it's possible to use the DSP through the headphone monitor without recording it in the DAW??
Is there any way to add digital gain before the Fat channel? or do I have to apply it after, which bypasses the limiter
Can i use the console with a presonus audio box 96
how does it work if i want to use my own audio dac for output, and not the built in headphone out or main mix?
Does Universal Control works with Studio 24C?
After clicking on my audio interface - the mixer does not open up, rather nothing happens… like shown in your vide at 1:46mins. I am using Windows 10 64Bit and presonus Audiobox Go 2X2. please help.
You alluded to this in the video, but I wanted to see if you might confirm for me. When used with gain-hungry mics like the SM7b, do you also get a lot of hiss (usually at gain settings of 20-29 dB) and/or RF noise (at settings of 30 dB or more) if you aren't using a mic booster? I've been going back and forth with support about it and they want to RMA it, but I strongly suspect that it's just a design problem that isn't going to get fixed and an RMA would be a waste of time. With a FetHead, I'm perfectly happy with the results, so I don't feel like bothering with an RMA if they aren't going to fix anything.

I don't get any hiss with the SM7b as long as gain isn't at max 60dB If you have the original batch of io24, they had a noise problem that they've fixed with a hardware swap

Hmmm, this is with the io44 that I've got. I was just curious because you mentioned the preamp wasn't very clean with the SM7b. Maybe I'll try the RMA after all, then. Once I normalize the signal, it's a pretty obnoxious amount of hiss with the MV7. Thanks!

Sweetwater sent me a replacement, but it is exactly the same in every way. Basically, the closer you are to 0 (so 1, 11, 21), the less hiss you get, whereas the closer to 9 you are (9, 19, 29), the more hiss you get. Up until you hit 30, then I start getting RF noise regardless of what cable I have plugged in or if the other end is even plugged into a mic at all. Maybe I'm just really unlucky with two faulty units, but if you do a full review, I'd suggest listening really closely for that. For me, it makes a FetHead/Cloud Lifter a mandatory purchase for low sensitivity mics.
If you have game sound in playback and you don't mute in mix a the sound well come doble if you having this trouble with battlefield 2042
Is there anything out their button wise that can control the software. Stream deck or touch portal wise?

You can run UC Surface on a mobile device to control any Revelator product if it's connected to a computer on the same network.
Does it save the presets for DSP changing PCs? i.e.: goin to a LAN event where you have to use the host's PC

What is this ACL plugin for OBS of which you speak at the 7:24 mark? I can't find anything on it via any search. As someone who bought the iO24 for use with both a microphone and guitars, that is a plugin that would come in handy for me. Please and thank you.

I have a Presonus Studio 24c and I love it, but there is one thing I still can’t figure out. When I use it with ANY OTHER software or games on Windows it comes through as mono, but when I use it with Nvidia GeForce Experience Instant Replay it will only come through stereo in the left ear. Has anyone found a fix for this yet? Edit: He just said that windows only sees it as a stereo device as I was typing this, so I guess not…

Thanks for the help, guys, but my interface doesn't have separate stream mixes so I think I'm stuck with left ear recordings until I can upgrade to a Revelator Interface.
can i write comment using universal control just checking
@EposVox - In the beginning of this video you say you weren't that big of a fan of the io24.... but in the other video (link below) you seem to highly endorse it. The link jumps pretty close to your final comments and recommendations. kzread.info/dash/bejne/rI6ptq6eYZDHd5c.html Are you a fan of the io24 or not? I enjoy your streams and your advice. So I am always looking for clarification and understanding... Thanks

@@EposVox Ahhh - Ok... thank you for the clarification! The way my brain processed your initial statement was that you weren't impressed with the io24, not with the UC. Thank you very much with the tutorial. It helped quite a bit! Keep up the great work!
This went waaaay too freaking fast for me. Gotta find something more geared toward beginners.
this is not for beginners....as I had no idea what you where even saying. Not a tech person here.
