Great review, beautifully went through the features loved it...
Hey! Thanks so much for the mention Bo! Keep up the amazing work. Also, I agree completely with the idea of a small more affordable interface, with the same Discrete Pro preamps. That’d be incredible!
Lets make it happen! With our combined might we shall get the Arturia overlords to bend to our will!!!!
🔥 BoPoD 🔥
Awesome review! When I saw the USB hub my first thought was my NI gear, you perfectly answered every question I was interested in! Thanks so much for the thorough review!
Very nice review, exhaustive and precise explanation. Greetings from Italy 👋
This was great! On the hunt for a new interface and this was super helpful. Cheers Bo
Great review, thank you!
THANK YOU! Great review, but I've been looking for an experienced answer about heat, compared to the smaller unit, and you addressed this. Much appreciated.
good and thorough review, thanks 😄
That song at the background is so dope bo!!
I saw your video while doing the research around AudioFuse Studio. Got it now, been using it for a week or so, and it' amazing. Every aspect you mentioned is being tested and I really cannot complain. I play mostly acoustic guitar, got a bunch of mics and some of those are ”lazy”, so that preamp gain is incredible. Didn't need to use pad boost option once, but it's good to know it's there.
The interface is worth every penny. Thanks for a very good video!
Glad to hear its working out for you!
We are all going thru a rough time right now. I hope my free sample pack can help just a tiny bit: gumroad.com/l/sonicsolitude
@Angry Biscuit Yes
About that, I'm very much a beginner, so how can I put those over on Ableton? o:
your amazing!!!! I was thinking about buying it, and now I know everything I need to know! great work!!! thanks bo
I hope you will dig it my man!! i am loving it still
Great review!
Hope you are well, Bo?!
Love your channel, even though I'm nowhere near to understand everything you are talking about 😂 But, I'm a tech and audio geek, so I'm more than happy giving myself a chance to pick up on even the smallest of things 😁
I just realized you cut your hair.. looks good man. Also, really great review! I'm using a cheap m-track 2x2 right now, and not really sure I need an upgrade, but wouldn't mind one, lol.
It matches your chair heheh, cool demo Bo!
Thank you for the thoughtful and well crafted video, I've been following your channel for a while and very grateful for it. I would have loved to have seen the software side of the interfaces (and how one interacts with it) so maybe something to consider for the future? Anyway, thanks again!
This interface looks awesome. I'm always excited with interfaces like this one but the lack of Thunderbolt is a deal breaker for me.
It honestly shouldn’t be
No, it shouldn't be. The impression that you need Thunderbolt for speed when it comes to audio interfaces is just marketing BS. Giving the impression that a sound card gets faster because it connects using one of the Thunderbolt protocols instead of the USB 2.0 protocol. USB 2.0 is not a bottleneck. It's got plenty of bandwidth for audio. If you were to run 44 channels of 24 bit, 192 kHz sound through the USB 2.0 cable you wouldn't even use up half the bandwidth of 480 Mbps that USB 2.0 offers. That's why among others Arturia chose to use USB 2.0, instead of unnecessarily paying Intel through the nose for using their proprietary Thunderbolt standard. Thereby keeping the price of the Audiofuse down.
Thunderbolt is also backwards compatible with USB, including 2.0. So you can hook up a USB 2.0 devices to your Thunderbolt ports. There are really fast sound cards that uses Thunderbolt, like the UA Apollo series. They are fast, not because of the Thunderbolt protocol, but because UA put effort and money into writing their own optimized drivers. Specifically tuned for their specific devices. They also have built in DSPs that can offload a lot of processing from your pc. All that comes at a cost for the customer.
Most manufacturers who sell USB based devices use off the shelf, OEM, USB audio drivers and components. They do nothing to tune them for max efficiency with their devices. When you sell interfaces for around 200 bucks it doesn't pay. There are a few exceptions to that.
I think Arturia's Audiofuse range have optimized drivers. They are fast, and not aimed at the lowest end market segment.
Thanks for the review! Seems like a really good interface with some functionality not found on many others.
I would have likes some sort of LED bands for the input levels, but well...
There are input leds for inputs 1-4 sorry if this was unclear. You can see input for channels 1-4 + master audio with the leds
@@BoBeats Oh! I overlooked that... Thanks for the clarification!
@@manuelsteinmair when he does the comparison between the 3 interfaces, you can see the led meters rising when he is speaking. Don't know the time stamp though... sorry
the phase inversion also switches off the lights ! Technology !
Great walk-thru of the AudioFuse Studio! Just sold my Presonus Quantum 2 and will order this one! Thank you!
Paul,
Did you have issues with the Quantum?
@@rjb7569 Well not in terms of quality perse, but the lack of routing capability outside a DAW was painful, not even thru their own UC control software was there any option to route anything. So only way to have any input work was to start up a DAW. So for me who uses my audio interface as a hub for a lot of different devices, it was kind of a pita. Also it was Thunderbolt 2 which is less and less common so i knew i had to switch to USB or Thunderbolt 3 sooner or later. I order the Audiofuse Studio this week and will probably have it by early next week.Really looking forward to it!
@@paullindqvist4560 I've been curious about that line and similar presonus devices. I've been looking at upgrading to something that can allow me to use more VSTs and monitor them live. What was your experience with latency and could you do very much processing in the box with them? Also why do you prefer usb over thunderbolt 2? Was just curious to hear from some one who has used it because some more notable reviews seem to suggest it and similar products have problems with latency.
@@brikstik3442 Well there are of course benefits to TB2(and of course tb3) over USB in some user cases, I'm not being one of them, latency under 10ms is no issue for me. The Quantum2 with TB2 on Mac and in-studio one pro 4 did low latency but it lacked in a lot of other areas, like direct monitoring (like other PreSonus USB interfaces have/had) it also was a pita to use outside a DAW, no way to adjust levels for anything outside a DAW. In fact, it was useless without a computer. Quantum 2 is discontinued and its life span was quite short, most likely to TB2, and that it was overlapped by other products. The current Quantum 2626 is TB3 and more future proof, the other two quantum is TB2 and will require an adapter with new computers. They are a bit sensitive to which adapter you use, startech is recommended from PreSonus. Bottomline super-low latency is not important to me, USB is fast enough for what I do. But more importantly the AudioFuse Studio is a beast in terms of connectivity, ability to use it as a stand-alone, and simply pure quality. Compared to my Quantum 2 the AudioFuse Studio is built better, better feature set, and overall better sound quality.
Hope that helps :-)
@@paullindqvist4560 hello, I would like to purchase this all in one interface, please tell me some words to your new Arturia AudioFuse Studio, pros and cons... Whats about latency? Thanks in advance.
Really great review. I’m in the market for a new interface have been using the apogee quartet. Been back and frothing between the Audiofuse Studio and the Universal Audio x 4, I’m mainly track vocals and guitars, would imagine a huge sound quality difference ?, and could the latency be a problem , thanks again.
Usefull video, thanks !!!
Ever I’m not using dsp, I still hesitate with the new twin X duo.
A question please : what’s your video recording setup ? Quality is amazing.
Thanks for another great gear review, Bo. It seems that Arturia has thought of just about everything with this wonderful interface, but I'm wondering: Does the AudioFuse Studio make good coffee?
The coffee it makes is hot ;-)
Hi - really great review. I really like all the flexibility built in. I’m a drummer and will be doing some 4 mic recording. You mentioned latency as not being great. Do you think that will be an issue for me using a Mac? Ideally - Arturia would come out with a Thunderbolt version. Thoughts?
I had NO Idea Bo...Great Review & Detailed......................Thanks !
Always great reviews, thanks 🙏
You have some experience with Apogee? Like Apogee element 46?
Not much experience with apogee other than getting scammed online one time by a low life when I wanted to buy one used :-(
Hi there,
There I saw your videos on the Audiofuse, thank you very much by the way, at one point you talk about the topic of Hub Usb, but I did not understand very well if it is not for the Sync or to send midi signal to the hardware, in my case I have the elektrons and I would like to know if I am going to have latency problems or if the overbridge is ok and of course if I send clock sync, Cheers!
I had two arturia audiofuse 8pre on the past, that i took rid off my home studio because the knobs of the preamps gain added noise when i turned them (same problem on the two and for the eight preamps), did you noticed the same problem on the studio or rev2 version ? And other question, Are the headphones amps powerful enough for a headphone like DT770 250 ? Or do you have to push the buton to the top ?
Thanks for this video ! :)
Sam' from France
So when you turn the master output knob, it sounds like it's not a "smooth-scrolling" knob, aka I hear it clicking a little bit. Is this accurate, or is it more a silent, fine-tune adjustment knob?
Hello my friend. I have one question. Can I have 2 separate mixes for each headphone outputs? Like one for monitors and a different one for the artist in the booth?
Small note: I haven't had any issues using a 3rd party USB cable with the original AudioFuse. But I certainly agree that the micro USB on it connection isn't very good (a common theme for devices of all sorts that use Micro USB).
I feel like a type c connection would be worse though. Am I some how wrong on that?
Type c is 1000 x better than micro
Cant believe they would put that on a professional interface
Was I drunk when I made this first comment lol? Definitely not what I think now.
Antelope synergy 4 or audiofuse studio? what is the best to record electric guitar like a pro?
Thanks for the Great Vid!
2 Questions...
¹. Whats the Dynamic Range of the Converters..?
². Are the 4xInserts Just 'Sends' or 1send2Rtrn 3Send4Rtrn..?
Thanks Bo!
I wonder if those optical inputs can be used for things like a Playstation 4...
The first Audiofuse - is that rev 1 or 2? I'm looking at a 2 but am curious what the differences are (or were I'm not sure how common it is to find a rev1 these days).
Hi! If you playback an audio file with signal level 0 dB and above does AudioFuse Studio have signal distortion on loopback channel ?
Could I run the SP404 inside the inserts of the Audiofuse ?
It's not the just usb version, it's also the driver quality. RME usb 2.0 is till really fast.
Great video!
Can't make a choice between this or going overboard with a RME UFX II...
Hi Nick, Patrice from Arturia. You're a 100% right! I would add it also depends of your needs. RME drivers are good but mostly the value is in the Total mix. Allowing to route a lot of things.
If you need something with the same quality standard but don't need a modular soft mixer (and maybe need to spent more time on making music than managing your sound card) the Studio (or 8pre) is a decent option to consider.
When you are choosing a sound card, there is one thing you need to check and compare : the conversion quality.
I give you, below, our AD conversion measurements and let you compare with the competition.
Hope it helps.
Line In
Maximum input level +24dBu
• Frequency response 20Hz to 20kHz +/-0.01dB typical
• Dynamic range 119dB (A-weighted)
• THD+N @ 1kHz -112dB (A-weighted) / 0,00025%
Instrument in
• Maximum input level +18dBu
• Frequency response 20Hz to 20kHz +/-0.01dB typical
• Dynamic range 119dB (A-weighted)
• THD+N @ 1kHz -112dB (A-weighted) / 0,00025%
THD (the level of noise created by conversion) needs to be low. So, the biggest negative number you have, the cleaner sound you have.
Cheers
@@patricemartin5652 Thank you for the answer!
I thing you get me on this one... You're the company of the moment as the soundcard is part of an order including Microfreak and maybe Drumbrute Impact.
You guys rock at Arturia!
Proud to be french ;)
@@nickskywalker2568 wooo many tanks for your kind words. enjoy it and stay safe!
@@patricemartin5652 so electrical component quality, jitter statistics and driver stability are non-issues? Your statement is misleading. We would appreciate honesty, not sales spin. RME’s total mix software can be bypassed and their objective audio quality, driver stability and latency figures remain class leading. You should arrange objective audio quality tests. If the audiofuse is comparable - wonderful. It has a great feature set.
does the USB Hub on this device actually provide a connection to the PC for your NI keyboard directly? that is awesome. I am sold if this is the case.
Hey Bo, what is the best groove box for ambient music, I play a lot of acoustic guitar and prefer ambient electronic music to loop over, and don’t want to bring my computer to use Ableton at my gigs
Check Synthstrom Deluge and Roland MC707
Hey man. Hope you are healthy and good! Does the Fuse Studio feel as "plastic-ey" as it looks like it is?
I would not say so... its definitely not the same solid chunk of metal as the old one, but it doesn’t feel plasticy to me
If you send an audio signal via bluetooth to AudioFuse Studio, can you record this signal into your DAW?
What camera? Good shots.
To me, if they released the Audiofuse with USB C and the Studio (or a version of it) with Thunderbolt (which would work on USB) that would be awesome. I do like the actual buttons and knobs for things rather than software controls for most things.
thanks man, actually i am considering it as a mixer for DAWless set ups........ as you say thunderbolt interfaces are great for DAWS......
Looks like a good product...but low latency is very important to me, with no onboard DSP, using your DAW effects while recording may give me latency issues. I am I right?
Can I use the bluetooth to make phone calls with smartphone?
Thanks for the nice review Bo. So can these function as a stand-alone mixer/interface without being connected to the computer, similar to say a Motu Ultralite?
Yes, you can use it w/o a computer. It loads the latest setting.
@@BoBeats arrgh! Don't tell me that. Now I really want one!
Hey Bo
By any chance have you tried to use the aux to send some signals to an external compressor?
I am trying to use OTO boom with the external effect processor plugin in Ableton, but I did not manage the proper rooting, the software is a bit confusing. Output A and B send the same signal to out 1-2 and 3-4 that you can mute and I did not find if i could send a specific track from ableton to the audio aux out.
Or if anyone managed to do it I would be very grateful to have your insights :)
I've had my eyes on this for a couple months now but ended up pre-ordered the new Arturia Minifuse 2. I'm running aum on an iPad pro into a Mackie 1202-VLZ (along with a digitech guitar bix, bluetooth receiver, and 48v mics), then routing the main out of the mackie into a focusrite 6i6 connected to Ableton. Ableton does the audio and midi routing, while the iPad is responsible for all of the sounds. I was considering this to replace the 6i6, and possibly the mixer... But now I'm not so sure I need to haha!
Upgraded the iPad from the same type Scarlett 2i4 because it has the USB hub option. Never saw one on an interface under $300 until the Minifuse
Thanks for the in-depth video, very helpful! With the two sets of speaker outs and headphone outs, can you select in software exactly what goes to each one? Two separate mixes where each person can hear their own things but also they both hear some things too? Example input A B C where person one hears A and C and person two hears B and C?
You can select between main and 2x cue mixes, so monitors can play 1 mix while headphones play cue 1 and cue 2 mixes
@@BoBeats Ok thanks for the response! Also are cue 1 and cue 2 mixes zero latency? Or must they run through a DAW? Use case hook up 3 pcs where person A hears pc 1+3 and person B hears pc 2+3, and perhaps they both hear bluetooth too, all with independent volume levels on each device? And of course real time monitoring on both mics for both people. I'm currently using a main board and a couple of submixers to do all of this right now but if I could streamline it into one device that would be great! This seems like the perfect device but it's a lot of money to invest only to be wrong :(
So from what I know the input monitoring is zero latency since it doesn’t pass thru a daw (unless you monitor thru the channels in a daw to use insert effects for example)
BT can be set to use channels 7-8 if I dont misremember so you could have those channels feed either main mix, cue 1 or cue 2.
@@BoBeats Ok thanks for your help and once again thanks for the in-depth review =).
Is it dat good an wats di price?
Hey Bo, I don’t think it’s likely but is it posible to use plugins on the mixer of the interface? Don’t mean dsp, but for example I Use Sonarworks reference 4 for speaker calibration and would love to use it on the interface mixer
You cant load FX into the audiofuse or the audiofuse software
Great review! I am planning to aquire one. Can you please tell me,how well the headphone output can drive high impedance headphones, like the Audio Tehnica ATH-R70X which has 470 Ohms? Will this headphones sound loud and clear without distortion at high volume? Thanks,
If you have those headphones you can get a 4 pin xlr adapter with a special cable and use a balanced headphone output from an external amp, something like the Schiit Magnius - this would really get some insane results with those headphones
I think I'll stay on basics right now : producing food in my garden, chopping wood for next winter, ....
Stay safe
USB 1+2 Puts out 5V .5 Amps USB 3 can put out .9Amps - 1.5 Amps. >> USB C can put out a full 3 Amps 7.5 watts to power most any desktop unit out there eliminating the need for another noisy wall wart. Take advantage of it. The wall wart is for people with older computers that don't have USB C.
Can you play both monitors simultaneously
can you use ssd or external hd with the usb hub??
How do you like those iloud monitors ??
love the videos..... but sadly that swipe sound... nooo
Hi Bo!
Have you tried the included arturia effects with it and can you use them for recording without delay ? I wonder if this USB 2 is fast enough and if the effects are not requiring too much cpu. If fast enough for tracking I would go for this rather than an apollo that is at the same price point
The included fx are VST and there will be latency when recording with them. Its not DSP fx
@@BoBeats thanks a lot ! Have a great day :)
I am running fx on a core 7 with no problems excepted pigments on which you must set a bigger sample rate on your settings to avoid any issues....
🧐 Bra video Bo, but...is it _worth_ the $900 price (or the $600 for the original)? Because that is one _mycket kostsam_ interface! Oh, and they fixed the proprietary USB connector with the original in the new Rev2 edition.
You get extra points for using Ableton. 👍🏻
What is the DSP for? On the
16-Rig. To power plugins?
No DSP on any audiofuse
Hi Bo! Could you possibly explain how one can use these interfaces as a standalone mixer?
The sound card has audiofuse software delivered and you can address any Channel and levels as you want it can also add 2 cue mixes completely separated from your main mix...
Honestly to this price range you get an awesome device with 4 wonderful preamps....and not mentioning all outs and in available it s really astonishing.....
Those edits and cuts XD
So you said for latency and for DSP this not the thing. I’m actually looking to lower latency (w/thunderbolt) and take a load off the cpu. Any points to the right direction would be appreciated.
i hear good things about the apollo series
What about the quality of recording, good?
absolutely. Its excellent.
BoBeats thank you dude 😊
Hi FJ François, if you want to evaluate the recording (conversion) quality there is few numbers you might need to check.
Our pre are offering 71 to 75db of gain with a ridiculously low EIN (-129db). EIN is the noise generated by the amplification. The lower (biggest negative number) is the better.
Please find below our conversion (A/D) measurements. I let you compare it ;)
Line In
Maximum input level +24dBu
• Frequency response 20Hz to 20kHz +/-0.01dB typical
• Dynamic range 119dB (A-weighted)
• THD+N @ 1kHz -112dB (A-weighted) / 0,00025%

Patrice Martin dude thanks then I need to check it out in person 👍🏻
How does the audio quality of the talkback compare with the regular AudioFuse? I received my AudioFuse Studio and the talkback is barely usable. There is a really loud group noise (see link below). Do any of your units have the same issue? Thanks!
Recording of the issue: www.dropbox.com/s/57qxveb8fkopkcq/audio_fuse_talkback_issue.mp3?dl=0
doesnt the pad attenuate the signal?
This one or Audient id44?
Amazing review. Great interface with mixer/Bluetooth player functionality. Does it have more audio latency than the Roland Rubix/Quad Capture, though? I am running a Surfacr Pro 6 and these have 9 ms latency at 256/512 samples (adding up the input and output one)
"The normal ones"
lol!
Audio interface Battle Audient iD 14 vs Audio fuse ?
Hi. Thank you for a very good review. I found it very interesting.
However, I noticed you connected the latency of the Audiofuse to the USB 2.0 cable. That's unfortunately a widespread misunderstanding. That you can make soundcard faster just by putting in a Thunderbolt interface is just marketing hype. It takes more than that to make it fast, and Thunderbolt isn't even a relevant factor there.
USB 2.0 has a bandwith of 480 Mbps. That''s more than double of what you would be able to use running 44 channels of 24 bits, 192 kHZ sound through it. You can't get more water through a hose than the faucet will provide. No matter how wide the hose is.
There are other reasons some Thunderbolt based cards are faster than others. It comes down to optimized firmware and (Windows) drivers. Something that can be achieved on USB too if the manufacturer finds it economically feasible to put effort into it. Most manufacturers don't. UA and RME does it for their Thunderbolt series. You pay a premium price for in-house driver and firmware development, plus the Intel Thunderbolt license, and the built in DSP's. It all adds up.
Lately it seems like Arturia is making the effort too. Their latest firmware and drivers for Audiofuse are claimed to have the latency on Windows down to 3 ms for both the Audiofuse rev 2 and the other two models.
Thanks for the comment. I agree with you on this. Thanks for explaining.
Thanks for your review. My favorite portable interface right now is the RME Babyface Pro, and I do my higher track count recording with the Apogee Ensemble. I've been looking for someone to make a portable high-end interface that combines my favorite features of the above interfaces into a desktop interface, and I think Arturia's done it: 4 mic inputs, extra line inputs, line outputs that work as reamp outputs (absolutely sells it for me), 2 independent headphone channels that can power 4 headphones in a pinch. I wonder if the mic preamps/converters/DI can compare to the RME or Apogee, but at this price range, Arturia clearly believes they can compete, and I think that even at $899, it's an incredible value for what they offer. It's going to be perfect for people who want to record multiple guitarists at once.
I have to hear it in person..not much beats rme for me.
@@foodstampz I actually got an Audient id44 since writing that. I really like it. I also plan on getting an SSL 2+ as my bus-powered portable option. That said, I really miss the digital gain control from the RME, and even today, there are many Thunderbolt devices that can't beat my Babyface Pro in latency. I don't know how, but RME gets insane latency numbers through regular USB 2.0. That said, the way I work, an extra 4-5 ms of latency doesn't really matter to me, since I don't often use software monitoring. Still, it just goes to tell you how good RME is, that it's been like 4 years and nobody can actually beat the Babyface Pro.
what about the dsp fx?
There is no dsp fx
I am kind of bummed to find out it has a usb hub in the back but you cant record a mix into it as standalone mode. I like the idea that I could line in my mpc live, my monologue (Kyra one day) maybe my roland ect and have the a like a hybrid mixer/audio interface. The blue tooth reciever is cool to for like just playing something from you phone if you wanted. Still really bummed I just cant cut a wav directly to it.
That would have been a very cool feature
You can record a mix in standalone mode. You can output any combination of inputs to any of the analog outputs (ie speakers, phones 1, phone 2 or aux) and digital outputs (Adat and spdif).
@@jujunak but does the device itself cut a wav of the final mix? Because, i read that it does not do that in standalone mode. I would need to interface it with a DAW to record.
@@S1ph3r No it does not do that since it does not have any storage. But you can use an external recorder if you don't want to hook up a computer.
@@BoBeats I got another question for you about this device if you still have it. If you were able to go into your PC/MAC and completely disable the motherboard microphone and sound output, could you efficiently still use this as a audio card I suppose? With my setup, I have some limitations with sound because of some (high performance VM with hardware passthrough with no sound card). So what I am wondering is if this device can be used with a PC/MAC as an audio card (like does it show up in device manager as a device for audio playback and microphone if a mic was hooked up to it).
hey, a bit unrelated but the audiofuse studio is actually great for live streaming (especially on Windows). I made a tutorial about how to live stream. Super in-depth: ruclips.net/video/3nnqPf1stbs/видео.html
Hi i love your videos and content, but please put the volume down on the bg music. Thank you
Will think of it for the next vid :-)
Love your videos - you're a very amiable person, but the background music is too loud and is distracting. But please carry on and thank you for the video.
Thanks Larry. Its good to know how people feel about it :-)
But what about sound quality ???
Do you still have the Deluge?
Yes!
Love to see more of it on your channel👍
Is it DC coupled?
I looked it up, and the outputs are DC coupled.
~* the cuckoo intensifies *~
(great review thank you)
Another review said he had a combined latency of 26 milliseconds. Terrible. What are you getting? (Asked this before your review was over so you may yet cover it).
Its in the end of the video: depending on buffer size and sample rate it varies quite a lot. You can see in the end for yourself as I share some screen cap
Nothing as terrible as 26 ms with my normal settings tho
You have to understand that latency is also computer dependent. The same interface card can have certain specs on one PC and on another PC will be completely different.
Why no proper shots, of the backside of the unit??
unrelated, would like to know which ableton live 10 skin you are using please.
The default one i think 😅
You just change colors lol
It says “soon” on their site to me 😪
Ive seen a few out in the wild :-)
BoBeats but México is wildland 😅 hehehe anyway, keep waiting for it 🤷🏻♂️
I got mine last week from www.Thomann.de
The Swedish voice can never compare to that American one in terms of stab yourself in the testicles DB power
I saw tory lanez use this
The studio or the rev2?
for portability buy native instruments audio interfaces.
also for PROS without to many funny things.
clean audio interfaces and not to much boost and bla bla bla
As someone about to upgrade my interface, videos like this are quite helpful, great depth and you seem to be quite knowledgeable. That's why your comparison at 7:04 was a disappointment. I've narrowed my search down to Arturia Studio and Audient iD44, having recently cut RME Babyface Pro FS from my shortlist. I'm not alone, as I've come across 4 other people in forums who are also down to the same 2 finalists. Why would you choose the $129 Audient Evo 4 for comparison? It's an entry level product competing with the likes of Scarlett 2i2. Meanwhile, the same company makes the interface that is the closest thing in the market to Arturia Studio. Please don't take my comments to harshly, I really do think a vast majority of your video is informative and helpful.
So audio interfaces is not the focus of this channel. I only have one audio interface in the price range of the Studio. So I make do with what I got. Ofc not ideal, but its not like I can just point at any audio interface and say ”hey give me one so I can test it”. And in fairness I did make the test broad: one entry level card, two more expensive.
Great design but they don't make proper drivers so I assume the performance is average at best - probably poor on windows.
Bad review. No mention to the mix control. Nothing bad...What about the problem that was reported with the main volume knob??.. Nothing...I hope the Arturia money was great..
ca$hin ca$hin ca$hin. I almost forgot to unsubscribe to this channel. Sadly, this is not a gear review channel anymore:
"Great X product", "Affordable X product", "Beautiful X product", "X product sounds really good", "Amazing X..."
Change my mind.
Well... is this a comment in good faith? Or are you simply trolling? Here’s an honest answer regardless:
If you look at any video I make today I am much more critical than I was 3 years ago. I am more thourough in my testing, I try and explain why I like something and if there’s things I don’t like.
What I think you are doing is mistaking a title for the content, its called judging the book by its cover. If you for example look at my Evo 4 review and compare it to any available evo 4 review i was probably the most critical of the bunch.
Take for example my ”Amazing Minilogue FX”. Its just a eye catching title. The effects are demonstrated to give an idea what they are. And thats it. Hardly anything weird about that. Its a pretty boring video tbh, and if I wanted to shill (dunno why I would) for Sinevibes I could have been way more pushy about it.
The more I think about it the more I just feel comments like yours are such bad faith arguments. Its like you havn’t watched the videos. Go and watch my Minilogue XD vs Minilogue, or Cycles Explained and come back telling me how I am not putting in a good amount of effort... I will be waiting.
@@BoBeats To tell you the truth. I am being quite honest, it is just what have been feeling recently from your videos and content in general. My rant is not about the quality and effort you make, I am sure this is huge. My rant is about how lately everything is just advertisement.
I was a fan of yours on the Circuit era and stuff. I felt your honest humble impressions back then (even at your reply here I see how humble you still are).
But, why to use catchy clickbait-esque titles? is this to make people "mistake a title for the content"? Do you really need them in your content? I am sure you do not need this, nor the pictures of you hugging the product as if you loved it... that is really misleading. I love my Ibanez guitar, I love my Korg M3. They have been with me a lot of years and have help me in many ways... but I do not love my HX Stomp wtf it is really awesome, but it has been with me very short time....
Why to make a video for a product at the very day of release? just to increase the hype of the new thing, hence increasing sells? are you only thinking on the companies that send you products, or are you also thinking on the viewers that feed your view count?
If this what your viewers seem to like, then I am quite disappointed. We as a community have failed in controlling what companies tells us to buy.
I understand you also want more views, but what the heck... I think we can do better than that.
I appreciate the honesty, I do. I feel like you need to think your comment thru a bit more tho. I am trying to work full time making music tech videos in combination with making my own music, and doing other creative things. So obviously getting a good viewership on my videos is one of many important aspects.
If I make ”10 Effects for Minilogue XD” and skip the more clicky title I cut my views in half. Now why would I do that? You seem to think its *just about the views themselves* but to me I see it as me gettig my content across to people. In a sea of youtube videos you have to find a strategy to doing it. Its not always about making it clicky either: its a creative craft where you simply try and make something which tells a story or stands out. My Wavestate sound demo is just the synth and it did well. Its also about keeping video thumbnails a bit consistent so people know what they are getting (a Bo video) and not be upset when its, oh! That damn Bo again 😅
As for release day videos: same thing. Why would I not release a video early and shoot myself in the foot in the process? I get that to a small % it seems like advertisement. And it is in a sense, because all our gear videos is FREE advertisement for the companies. Regardless of when we post them. But my aim, and this should be pretty clear from the -videos themselves- is to share fun and educational videos about music tech. Some are longer and more detailed, some are more hype, some are tutorials. You get it.
What I’d love for you to do is simply go thru my latest videos. You can just look at titles and thumbnails. What you will find is that most are not all that over the top. Some are a bit funny (my Matriarch unboxing I am particularly proud of 😂) but most are not absurdly clickbaity. Most titles are just what the video is about. Ofc I try to make them searchable and engaging, but not doing it is... yet again... shooting myself in the foot because many people including many fans won’t see the videos otherwise. Because of how youtube work and how it delivers the videos to the viewers.
I also still wonder: what about the video you commented on was bad? The title? (It describes that the video will go over 9 great features) The thumbnail (its me and the thing...) or the content (i try to be clear that I like the AF lineup, thats me trying to be honest, and I go over what I think anout the interface). So I am kinda curious what the problem with the video (especially compared to whats out there on other channels) is problematic? And since you have this general critique its hard for me to really understand what, beside thumbnails trying to be cute (the hugging my synth thing for example) and titles sometimes being hype, what beside that is a problem?
Note that I am not getting a lot of feedback like this. But I am honestly curious if there’s small things I could change or if its more a perception thing from your end and maybe not understanding youtube as a platform?
I think it is information about a product, not a critical review - this is a a successful channel and as such manufacturers want their products on it - of course there is a conflict of interest and money is at the heart of it. That is the world we live in unfortunately.
Sorry, I couldn't follow through cause the music was quite annoyingly loud at times...
Thank you for the feedback! Appreciate it
