Hi :D,
My soundcard is MOTU 828 MK2 and I need some mic preamps. Would you rather choose SP828 or m-audio Octan with ADAT? I thing that the only advantige of Octan is that I can have more inputs on my audio interface. What about sound quality? I used crappy Behringer MX series mixer preamps till today, is it big difference?
Or do you know about anything better in this price category? I prefer better audio to higher number of inputs, but 8 is minimum.
Many thanx
Lukas

Don't know about the SP828, but I have heard the Octane recently and would say it is a step up from the MX mixers. What I like most about the Octane is that the converters were of decent sound quality and there was 8-line inputs that bypass the mic pre's to get access to the converters and ADAT optical.
