Topic: ADI-2 PRO FS R vs MADIFACE XT as DAC and DAW Audio Interface
Hello, this is my first post. It might be an obvious thing for 99% of the members here.
I originally bought my ADI-2 PRO FS R mainly to kill 2 birds in one shot. It has Balanced analog outputs(3/4 & 1/2) and XLR outputs for my high res audio and my focal utopia as well as onscreen EQ. Also analog XLR analog inputs, believe me I have no complains.
I recently saw the MADIFACE XT having a huge amount of analog inputs and outputs. Also it has a monitor headphone output on the front. This does not have a built in EQ screen but can I use totalmix FX to tweak the EQ going out to the headphone output?
on an earlier post in 2018 somebody reported a latency issue when using the ADI2 PRO FS as an audio interface which ADI2 PRO was never design to do that but it seems the problem was a Mac issue. This could be fixed is in max by using TOTALMIX FX but that is not available in the ADI-2 PRO.
How does the DAC of the MADIFACE XT compares to the ADI-2 PRO FS R balanced output? can I just go with the MADIFACE XT and enjoy high res files as a DAC and also use it as an audio interface for logic pro? anybody compared both side by side? will I miss the ADI2 PRO? should I get A DAC ONLY dedicated device + MADIFACE XT combo? vs ADI2 PRO FS R. I know they are a lot of questions.
Thank you!!
