Frequently Asked Questions
The automix does a decent job, but it’s not perfect; expect occasional gain spikes if background noise is excessive, requiring manual adjustments.
Yes, but the preamps are designed more for vocal applications, so instruments might benefit from a higher-end interface for optimal tone.
The touchscreen is generally responsive, but menu diving can be a bit cumbersome during live sessions; practice beforehand is recommended.
