    I would like to see audio interfaces like Apogee Symphony Desktop, Neuman MT48, how do they compare against all interfaces you have reviewed. Presonus also released new Quantum audio interfaces (ES and HD), would be nice to have it in your channel!

    Interesting findings Julian and appreciate all your work and I have not heard this anywhere else. Personally I found from quick tests, the noise levels at 1600 iso far too high for my liking for daytime with nd filters that some insist on due to Geralds findings. Also interesting you mention ETTR when some are saying you need to expose to left for iPhone 15 pro/max. After fiddling too much with the iPhone I decided to return to my Sony A1 as it seems more fun.

    24 bit converters gave us a solution we’d all been awaiting. When recording with 24bit converters, a -20dBFS peak level is totally usable, which was not the case in 16bit. 24bit recording gave us flexibility at the input, flexibility setting record levels. A 32bit recorder does not add to that input level flexibility as the limits of physics have been met already at the input. We can’t lower the source noise by 48 db and we can’t send 250Vac from our preamps to a DAW. For those of us who have equipment with multi converter and preamp tech such as a few field recorders or the Neumann Digital microphone,the safety extension IS available for 32bit recording. For the other 99.999%, it is not. This distinction is important and often misunderstood. Any situation in which the recording engineer has control (even a second of soundcheck) will return perfect results recording to 24 bits, using 3 or 4 of those bits (18 to 26db) for safety, much like we have always set safe levels, but with far greater room for error. Recording with the same front end (mic, preamp) to a 32 bit file accomplishes absolutely nothing. A 32bit float(ing point) digital file gives infinite range for the most unimaginably clumsy file handling such as very large gain and eq processing IN THE DIGITAL REALM without check the result AND simultaneously erasing the original signal. If these exceptional conditions match your workflow, then 32bit ‘Float’ is manna from heaven. Such situations might arise in field capture for film or TV. In the studio or live concert recording, these actions would disqualify any engineer. In 50 years, I’ve never encountered them.

    I’m so happy i bought this device already. Your description is interesting,personally any recording devise with XLR connections under 130.00 pounds is un heard of. I got virtually Binaural sound recorded with the Y configuration kept still outside a window. Playback you can hear the direction vehicles are driving in. Almost 3D sound. I prefer this to my sony linear PCM recorder

    32 bit recording is good for people that don't know what they are doing or they are learning and also for emergency situations and you don't have time to set everything properly. If you know what you are doing and NEVER make mistakes then your don't need 32 bit. More bits is ALWAYS BETTER in every scenario as an option.There are people than can record the BEST FUCKING AUDIO in 12 bits because they know what the fuck they are doing and have been doing it for a long time.

    Great review, Julian. Some good, some bad, and even some ugly. Thank you specifically for pointing out latency mediocrity. Manufacturers such as Focusrite can leverage their broad range of high priced units to fix this at reasonable cost with dedicated DSP. They will only do it once they have no choice so keep the heat on.

    Air is a very special kind of EQ that virtually no plug-ins can accomplish, an ultra-gentle tilt right up to and beyond 20kHz. Though I rarely use it, it is well designed and, like I said, irreplaceable.

    Because the preamps in an interface are analog. (You can't have a purely digital amplifier, they don't exist)

    For the end product you convert the audio file to 44.1 kHz 16bit 256 kbps AAC or OPUS (← 48 bit). The very little quality loss is worth the tremendous amount of saved space. But it's always convenient to keep lossless high quality audio as a source file for editing purposes.

    The big reason why i decide me for the moto m4 were the reports that focusrite did not run stable in the past vesions. With my motu i have no problems. Still happy with it. I know it is hard to give evaluations about quality and hardware and software stability. So it would good if you could integrate these result into your testing.

    This Solo model is very weak compared to 2i2, its naming is false advertising, has no relation to the others. I see absolutely no reason to buy at the current price. Those who can't afford the real Scarletts should buy another brand

    Julian, is there any audio interfaces out there which has digitally controlled output gain (other than Audient EVO 4) that you're aware of? I'm currently using Solo 4th Gen and it's an inconvenience whenever I have to reach for the physical output knob, rather than pressing Volume Up/Down keys on macOS which used to work with EVO 4 ...
