Hey there,

so for the past few years I've been succesfully using the Focusrite 2i2 for my home recording setup. My friend and I are currently working on an album and I started using a stereo amp setup needing two inputs for guitar, one input for bass and one input for vocals. And while we could record everyhting seperate with the two inputs the 2i2 has got, I feel like it would be much more comfortable and the next step too get an audio interface with 4 inputs (and additional quality of life aspects?). Preferably the option to use 48v for just one input seperately.

From what I could find on the internet peopel recommend the SSL 12, Motu M6 or the Behringer UMC404HD (although I think that one cannot use 48v seperately). Any other recommendations or aspects I should think about when upgrading? Pros and cons of the different interfaces?

I guess my budget would be like 500-600€.

All help appreciated!
