Don't Outgrow Your Audio Interface | Future-Proof Your Studio
In my latest video, I share how to future-proof your studio by choosing an audio interface with ADAT connections so you never outgrow your gear.
I demonstrate how I’ve expanded my own setup to handle up to 32 channels of I/O by repurposing old interfaces and integrating external preamps through a single central hub.
Whether you're just starting out or planning to record full bands, I'll show you how this flexible digital connection ensures your equipment grows along with your ambitions.
Thanks again to RME for making this video possible.

By the end, you’ll see how mastering this simple pre-mixing step gives you far more control over the emotional impact of your tracks.
