Topic: Options for adding more remote controlled mic preamps to Fireface UFX?
Hello, I just upgraded from my trusty old RME Digiface to a Fireface UFX. Among all of the other great features, I really like the remote control abilities of the 4 built-in mic preamps and was wondering:
1. What are all of my options for adding more preamps that can be remote controlled?
2. I see the Octamic XTC, which looks like it would do the trick, but I was wondering: would the 12Mic also work in this way?
3. From what I'm reading, I would need to connect a MIDI cable between the Fireface UFX and Octamic XTC to remote control the XTC through TotalMixFX--is that correct? Again, would the 12Mic work in the same way?
4. Are there any mic preamps from other manufacturers (e.g. the Presonus DP88, which appears can be remote-controlled over MIDI) that can be remote-controlled in this same way, or this a proprietary RME thing?
Thanks!
