I recently sold my Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 and replaced it with a Scarlett 18i8, mainly because I wanted more than two XLR inputs. I didn't realize that in doing so, unfortunately I would be losing hardware direct monitoring capability. Focusrite has software to permit direct monitoring in the Windows and Macintosh platforms, but not in Android.
Is there a way to use the Scarlett 18i8 with Audio Evolution in Android with direct monitoring of the source being recorded? If, as I expect, the answer is "No," my main question is: What is the best audio interface I can use with Audio Evolution in Android that has the following capabilities?
- Direct monitoring
- More than two XLR inputs
- Preferably its own power supply (i.e., not bus-powered)
- No other "gotchas" (i.e., limitations that will make me sorry I bought the thing)
Thanks in advance!
