im on vaca in NYC for a few days and went to Control in brooklyn where they have some enormous modular setups and various other hardware hooked up to speakers and ready for customers to play around with (a good variety given the small/boutiquey size of the place)

spent most of the time getting real basic robot farts out of a pair of mother32s because dang the tabletop sized modular racks they had are pretty intimidating when you only know the very basics with that stuff

afterwards i realized i kinda preferred the a4 i currently have to the modular stuff, i can get all kinds of neat sounds out of that thing with what felt like a fraction of the trial and error/dead ends. but this is probably because id already had many hours of experience constantly toggling through the a4's barely-labeled menus

anyway Control is real cool check em out if you're in the area that's my story cya.

googling that soundcard I don't see 16 opticals ins 'n outs. only two (A and B).

lots of analog ins and outs are always useful! I see it has 8 of both, should be good for multitracking stuff, running stuff in and out through hardware FX or whatever.

an 828 mk II was my sole interface for many years, and it was loving great. if you want to use those extra ins, you can indeed just get an external ADC with lightpipe output. i only ever used mine to record bands so i used an octopre as the front end for my optical ins, bringing me to 16 channels

trivial to set up, sounded great

you can input/output more than one channel over a single lightpipe in/out

a guy wrote a concerto for tc-11 and orchestra, which was pretty cool. and i've seen rock groups play with it on stage.

everyone has a different approach to incorporating their gear into their music. personally i've always made a point to create something with software that i buy. like, i can go all the way back to mac os 8 and point to pieces / songs / performances for all the apps i bought.

and then there are people that will always be one more piece of gear away from 'being able to' make the music they want. i strongly advise not being one of those

so many ways of doing that. . . with the hybrid fucketry i do with a buddy with have OSC and network midi running and can transmit the data. Normally when we're just jamming i have 2 preset iPads under a table I control with midi controllers.

i basically just use it as a sound module for a midi keyboard and record performances instead of sequencing/arranging in the ipad. that format is just too twiddly for me to want to gently caress with that much. i also export loops and performances from stuff like samplr and werkbench for use in tracks that are actually composed on a desktop. for exploratory samplefuckery there are some ios apps that just stomp any comparable thing on the desktop

the stuff i do jamming with a friend has me pushing my analog stuff into software, re-exporting via analog to his mixer then flying into another rig.

There are a lot of ways of going about it, it's just according to how crazy you want to go, but if you have a center controlled DAW, you can slice up midi controllers to control different soft synths on tablets and poo poo gets weird real quick.

my faves are Samplr, SampleWiz, Werkbench, iElectribe, Figure, Funkbox, Patterning, Model 15, Animoog, and the various Arturia synth apps

i always put in a special plug for Werkbench because it's unlike anything else and i feel like it's really under-appreciated

speaking of, my replacement seaboard got here today and it works p great with model 15 straight out the box. the only thing you have to do to make it perfect is change up the pitch bend range from the defaults in Model 15. unfortunately that change isn't persistent so you have to do it for every patch, which sucks, but it's like two seconds to do
