If you need more than 2 channels, there are multiple used Presonus ACP88 units on reverb.com for under $300. Heck, I may need to get one!

A worthy successor to your 238, I hope?

Do give us an update! Especially curious if the onboard compressors and effects are usable.

Don’t know if this is what you were hoping for but this is an endlessly fun pedal

First post in years! I sold my primary mixer this week (Allen &Heath ZED R16) to a guy eager to use it with his synth gear, glad it went to a good home. I’m finally going to get a full on interface, and sounds like Thunderbolt interfaces may be the ticket. I’m stripping down my basement to the cinde...

Resource for fans cooling etc...

OP said that they already have preamps and only need to record 2 tracks at a time.

But wait there's more

Speaking as a former owner of a 238s, I made good use of a Mackie 1202. Everything bigger than that is gravy. In fact, you can use the mixer as a mixdown only and use whatever preamp or other mixer as your recording input. You can make your setup as convoluted as you want but in my experience the mi...

Page 17 has all of the options. I think you can use the fader=midi setting to record fader moves in your daw.

NT4 or NT5 with the Joly capsules?

If there is a way to reamp it or run it through a Fishman Aura pedal, you will like it. They're modeled assuming a brittle sounding piezo as an input. I was impressed and I'm an acoustic guitar tone snob. Recording the pedal output back through a PA or avoustic guitar amp works even better.

Life got in the way (out of state parents dying, day job responsibilities grew, house stuff, etc.). But also interests shifted back to working on performing instead of documenting. I did need something recorded, and not only did I connect with a studio that frequented this board (Thanks Neil- Old Bl...

What's your budget??

ZED R16 has a Windows driver. And you should probably google the difference between the different Firewire protocols and USB/USB2/USB3. Based on what you're writing, I think you may be a couple of years behind the curve. You're not facing up to why you can't get what you want: the equipment is out t...

A board that has all three does exist: http://www.allen-heath.com/ahproducts/gs-r24/ But the motorized fader version will set you back $9000 street. Frankly, if motorized faders are that important to you, you should buy the controller separately from your interface. One oldie but goodie is the Tasca...
