I was running two Apollo's in my tracking space -- one 8p and one x8. Sold the 8p and upgraded to a slightly used x16 and added a Heritage Audio OST-8 ADAT. Love it. I track everything with analog outboard into LUNA. Love your set up -- I'm very interested in that Flock Audio Patch.
Thanks. Analog in is definitely the way forward. I use a hybrid mix of analog and plugins for mixing. You’ve got a good set-up there! 🔥 Check out the Flock, it’s unreal!
I have both the UAD x16 and since a few month ago, i get the Aurora Lynx mk2 and have to say the difference is noticeable in the Aurora, sound more deeper and open, the lows sound round and the stereo image , mid and highs sound pristine.
Got to do the same in a few weeks. My new drum room will be ready soon. Have 4 racks worth to move and re-cable! All good fun though. Adding some new pres for the drum tracking. Hope your upgrades work out.
Haha a cool watch, it amazes me how much great gear you pros have! I have a laptop, Volt 276, Beyer Dynamic headphones and nothing else! No wonder I produce shite! Top stuff as always Ed!
I considered this but I wanted the flexibility the Flock Audio Patch provides for unlimited routing possibilities. You’re quite limited to single send/returns or fixed mono module chains with the Cranbourne.
Thats why im just getting a good ad/da converter and a good mic pre and just stay completely in the box with analog and the wiring is just pain and headache to setup and mentain bro

Ahhhh Ed "OCD" Thorne making another appearance haha 😜
Haha. Defo wasn’t OCD about the audio on this one 🤣 All phone audio🤘
really appreciate your approach ... congratulations on the additional I/O and improved converters!
Thanks. This video wasn’t my usual production standard but thought it’d be an interesting “behind the scenes of an eve loving studio”.
Been a stoked user of an Apollo x16 for a few years now! Sounds lovely and has been rock solid in reliability!
That’s awesome! It’s nailing the job for me too.
Great video. Thanks Ed!

I’m looking to upgrade to a Lynx Aurora (n) as and when I can. Problem I have now is any upgrade to any part of my studio is £5k+ 🤣

Thanks. What pres are you getting? Good luck with the move!
@@EdThorne cheers. Rupert neve.

Haha, thanks. It’s definitely about the skill over the gear, but gear does makes life fun. 🙂🤘
I really like that desk. Yeah the back of my rack is a bird's nest too 😂
She’s a beauty.
Ed you should check out the Flock Audio Patch….Great tool for a Apollo 16 and a bunch of 500 series gear
Did I not feature the Flock in this video…?
Ed , oops, yes you did. My apologies . Very educational . Fyi, I scanned the section titles of the video but didnt see Flock listed, just Wes audio.
Man you should have got the cranborne Adat 500. 2 optical cables would have ran your modules to your X8 or X6

@@EdThorne gotcha. I use all my gear as I/O hardware inserts. X16 on my Orbit and my 2X8s for all other gear
Great. Hi, with that set up can you work with all the analog at 96 kHz, or only 48 kHz, thanks
You can work at 192Hz if you want.
Thanks.
Nice upgrade, you can cascade 4 of these so future proof for a console 😊
Absolutely! That’s a TON of I/O.
What is the desk you’re using
The Zaor Miza Flex X2 in Charcoal: th-cam.com/video/xhBC87J2BkU/w-d-xo.html
@@EdThorne thank you
Do you sell the Apollo X8P?
Thats why im just getting a good ad/da converter and a good mic pre and just stay completely in the box with analog and the wiring is just pain and headache to setup and mentain bro
It is but once it’s in it’s fine. It’s too much fun not to have 🤣 But I totally understand being fully ITB.
