Topic: FF800 & Now Universal USB Remote Question
Purchased a used FF800 Firewire 800/400 interface, looks brand new. I have had a Babyface for my primary DAW but now use it as my DA converter on my work desktop computer for Audio playback. I was going to sell it but compared my FR -Scarlet, much less $ to be fare for audio play, and I said forget it I will just keep it.
Was surprised the FF800 does not have Fx ? Or an Eq Option, I missed those two options in my read up on the tech specs. Jeeze
Ok to my Question: I noticed the Main Headphone Jack on the front is only outputting to one ear?
I am trying to figure out what my options are:
Try and clean the contacts of the headphone jack with pot spray
Send off to be repaired
Use the FR Scarlett only as an audio output used during recording? (not sure use can use two interfaces like that.)
OR
Could I purchase one of RME's new USB remotes and assign the single Jack as a stereo headphone jack for playback monitoring when I am tracking ?
Any advice, repair ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
