Audient EVO SP8 The SMART Preamp - EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW

Full review and demo of the Audient Evo SP8 8in/8out smart preamp. Add 8 more inputs and outputs to your audio interface with the SP8. #Recording #audient The Evo SP8 is the preamp that sets the input gain for you. No more juggling gain knobs for 15 to 30 minutes when it's time to record your band. Just use Smartgain, and the input gain will be set for you in about 20 seconds across all 8 inputs. But it gets even better when you use the Evo SP8 with the Evo 16! When you connect the Evo 16 and SP8 together, you now have an Evo Expanded System - which is just a fancy way of saying the Evo 16 and SP8 integrate together seamlessly. And that means you can control the preamps of the SP8 from the Evo 16 on-screen mixer, turn ON/OFF Phantom Power, and set Instrument Level, just like you can for the inputs of the Evo 16. You can also use Smartgain across both units with just a couple button clicks. So if you need the gain set for 16 microphones - the Evo 16 SP8 can do it in about 20 seconds. Still not enough I/O? No problem. Connect TWO Evo SP8's to your Evo 16 and set the input gain across all 24 channels in about 20 seconds 🤯 Plus if you already know how to use the Evo 16, then you will instantly know how to use the Evo SP8. Doing things like manually setting input gain, muting inputs, channel linking, Phantom Power, etc... is exactly the same. But it's NOT just the Evo 16! You can use the Evo SP8 with any ADAT capable audio interface. So if you already love your Focusrite Scarlett, or your PreSonus 1824c, or your Audient iD44 MKII - you can add an SP8 to your system, which will give you 8 more inputs, 8 more outputs, and Smartgain for the inputs on the without giving up the audio interface you already like. ➡️SPECS: The Evo SP8 uses 32-bit AD/DA converters 8 channels at 58dB gain range (-8 to 50) 2 switchable Instrument Level inputs 8 Mic | Line inputs total 8 Line Outputs Mic Preamp Frequency Response: 10Hz - 40kHz Wordclock input 48v Phantom Power per channel Stereo Linking Input Muting Full color screen Can be rack mounted In this video we'll go over everything you need to know to get up and running with the Evo SP8. ➡️CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Intro 0:11 - Overview 3:57 - Unboxing 4:35 - Evo SP8 Unit Overview 5:58 - Rack Mount the Evo SP8 6:35 - How to Connect and Setup the Evo SP8 10:16 - Using Wordclock 11:15 - How to Record with the Evo SP8 12:31 - Record Guitar 12:57 - Smartgain 14:52 - Use the SP8 with any ADAT Capable Audio Interface 15:38 - Outputs: Analog or Digital 18:54 - Turn ON/OFF 19:19 - Mute Inputs 19:31 - 48v Phantom Power 19:52 - Instrument Level 20:20 - Stereo Link Input Channels 20:42 - Inputs & Digital Inputs on Motion UI Screen 20:54 - If you know how to use the Evo 16, you know how to use the SP8 21:13 - Final thoughts Official Evo SP8 website ➡️Buy the Evo SP8 (affiliate links) Amazon: Sweetwater: Rack Ears for the Evo SP8 Sweetwater: ➡️MENTIONED IN VIDEO Evo 16 Audio Interface Video Rack Screws Sweetwater: Amazon: Optical ADAT Cables Shure SM7B Sweetwater: Amazon: Panasonic Lumix S5 (get the S5 Mark II when it comes out) Amazon: Sweetwater: ➡️Our Links Website EPIC Plugin Deals Link Tree ➡️Buy your audio plugins and hardware with our affiliate links Amazon - Sweetwater - Best Service - Plugin Boutique - Waves - Native Instruments - SUBSCRIBE ::: LIKE ::: COMMENT
