I love that T-shirt! where can i get it?

It’s always nice to see a video from Mike. I'm digging the t-shirt too!

If that's your basement it looks like you've really transformed it in a stylish way.

who would down rate this video?.. this is the most thorough and honest video you will find online for this product. You guys do know you are rating the video not the product, right? As for the Evo 8, I bought this product and love it. I seen reviews that complained that the jacks where loose. I think Audient may of taken note of that and improved on the build quality. When it came to the Evo-8 I own, it feels pretty solid to me and doesn't wiggle like was shown in videos I have seen. Color changing LEDs was a missed opportunity for this device and I am sure they won't make that mistake in a future iteration. I wish there was an option to disable the override to the monitor outputs when connecting a headphone. I wish i could leave all my cables connected and control disconnects through the software only. Otherwise its such a great product at its price point especially when considering the quality of the pre-amps.

I know this video is from awhile ago but I wanted to let anyone know, who may be on the fence about getting the EVO 8, to do it! It was my best purchase last year and being able to easily swap between custom gain setting and mics is amazing! Especially how often I swap from loud character work like screaming bloody murder to commercial and E-Learning work every day. I don't even have the interface within my booth. I keep it outside and just use the Mixer software for everything. Thanks for the review Mike! It helped me a lot with my decision.

Can we get a basement tour? Seems like you’ve changed things up a fair bit.

Hey Mike. How handy that you can now demonstrate the cardioid pattern using your tee shirt.❤️🎤

Big fan of you Brother! Your honesty shows through. Love it

Hi, I've been on the verge of buying this unit. I want to thank you for your video clearly showing what it can do!

Can you please do a video on VO breathing techniques? Breathing control during recoding is hard. Great videos. Thanks.

thanks, as always, for the excellent info, mike! man i would listen to you talk about anything.

Content providers take note: This is a proper review !

Thanks for the honest first 10 seconds! A lot more people need to hear, that most videos are one takes and super easy to do!

the evo 4 is a good interface if you want a clear neutral sound for condensers (if you dont mind the mechanics of it) if you want something brighter the motu m2 is decent (if your computer likes it) and if you're using a dynamic and or a condenser the ssl 2 is ideal for its ein

Great video👍I have the EVO 4 and I love it. I do VO and produce radio commercials with other VO artists too, and the EVO suits my workflow brilliantly. I originally bought it for Loopback so I could record other VOs over IP in to Pro Tools, but I've ended up using it for recording my VO jobs too. Preamps are clean, low noise, and full.

Good to see you again!

I've had the EVO 4 on my radar since Optimum Tech did a video about it. They make some amazing stuff for the price.

it's been forever since i've made it to your channel. I Love your videos and i'll make sure to not stay away for so long anymore ! :p

Great review Mike. Now I have got to compare this to the Motu M4.

Great informative video! My only comment wud be, and this is common across the board, is that I think reviews on these types of products need to touch on iPad function and compatibility. The amount of iPad creators continues to increase and it wud be great to see info being passed for this platform. Thanks and cheers!

Thanks Mike. All good stuff, all great advice. You have an excellent and oh so smooth voice!!! Thanks for the energy !! Happy Merry!

Thank You for this review. But i would like a device with all the controls from the Software in real Hardware. Maye i am a bit oldfashioned - Not sure 🤔 Chris

I got one of these right away and am quite happy with it. Love the power and portability.

Thank you SO much Mike. I'm looking forward to getting this ASAP and taking it for a spin!

I think the device turning to default after power down is a major letdown. My saffire pro 24 from 10 years ago can do that. I'm using the evo8 on a Chromebook and a save state to device would be really handy.

Thank you for this review. I think this device will simplify my current set up significantly.

I bought one to upgrade from my Focusrite and I really like it. For my voice, it is noticably warmer, and you can't beat the price for a four input device which makes it even more flexible for me. The mixer software also opens up possibilities for other work. Thanks for the review Mike!

I'd say the buttons on the evo are a bit confusing and annoying, but the mixer app lets me ignore it completely; you can control the interface entirely using the mixer software. Really handy

Just the best VO educator on the web, and I am staying a loyal subscriber, even if it does look like you dyed your hair red.

I agree that the 8 is worth purchasing for a few extra bucks. I love my 4 - I use it as a more portable option to my iD22. But man, wish I would've picked up the 8 for the reasons you listed. Great video!

You are just the best! Love your whole vibe and demeanor!

Perfect Review! The Evo 8 is now on my wish list. Thank You MD

Over a year later but just bought one of these. Was on sale for £89 and it is a great little box of tricks.

The sounds so crystal clear I'll never forget a sweetwater employee recommended me this and mackie fvxv3 por podcasting and in mics RE20 amd Shure SM7B

Interesting video and product. It is worth mentioning that the max gain is 58 db, which makes it less suitable for your low sensitivity dynamic microphone

Another great video, thank you! Your computer set up looks awesome, intimidating, but awesome. Would you consider a future video of your control room set up? Thank you for all that you do for the VO community. Happy Thanksgiving!

Once again a masterclass from Mike. Cheers big man!

Studio setup looking great Mike!

Yesss you are back!

Great explanation! Thanks, Mike!

Very helpful. Thank you, I'm impressed with this review.

OMG! OMG! OMG! A NEW PROPER BOOTH JUNKIE VIDEO!!!! *plays "Celebration"*

this was very helpful in troubleshooting my evo 8

*he's got that old school-dashing Arnold Schwarzenegger hair cut*

you're welcome, and thank you so much !

thank you.. very detailed review. more of a course on the device

Thanks for the preview of the evo-8 . hope the scratch on your arm gets better. Bet there is a story there. :)

what a steal. i'm in for one through your link. thanks mike

There is a M button on the software (Evo Control) that allows you to mute the audio instantly as opposed to holding and pressing. The preamps sound great on the EVO 4.

Hey, Mike...great to see you back more often...consider reviewing the SSL 2+ that came out in January...its got a great heritage,...I bought it and really like it, for the price...would love to hear you thoughts...

Thinking about getting this upgrading my scarlet one out put too this one

Could you do a review/comparison of the AT2020. You did one on the 2035, but I am considering a Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 + AT2020 combo.

Waiting for an EVO 32..,.

Great video. Happy Tuesday

Great video. Very well made!!

Your room/mic sound great!

Great Video, really informative!

Hey Mike, Is there an iPad app as well? Great vid bro. 💪

Great video! I learn something new every time I look at these. For example- I didn't know a USB-C connector could produce more power than a USB-A connector (for +48 v phantom power). Until now I always thought it was the other way around. By the way, where did you get those XLR cables with the colored boots?

I saw something about this device making it easier to use a mic like the Shure SM7B. You've talked about the Cloudlifter(?) with such a mic in the past. Apparently, you don't need one of these with the EVO 8. Have you dug into this yet? Some advice from you on this would be helpful.

Um Brazilian, what VO means? Amazing t shirt by the way

Problem solved 😇 Don't get confused with the faders, So Evo Mixer has output 1+2 (Master mix) down the fader of Mac 3+4 and Output 3+4(Artist mix) down the fader of Mac 1+2 then we'll have separate instrument out using EVO. Thank God 🙏🎶

Hello. Thank you for this review. It is still amazing three years later. Weird question. It seems like the big knob pops on and off easily. Is this the case, or do I have a defective unit? Thank you.

Отличные обзоры микрофонов и аудио/радиооборудования! Greetings from Russia.

Damn shill 😉. I 100% take what Mike says as fact. I almost bought this but ended up with the PreSonus. I wish I got this tbh. Hope you and your family are safe and well Mike and thanks for being amazing.

Is there a reason one would want to get a small interface like the EVO8, rather than using an actual mixer? I just got an A&H ZEDi 10FX, because I can use it for when I host karaoke or run sound for small bands, but it also works as an interface for recording. I did see a couple features that I would like; such as mute buttons and the software that saves your settings, but is there anything else that an interface would provide that my mixer won't? By the way, sorry for my ignorance. My experience is in live productions, which I haven't been able to do this year because of Covid. I figure it's a good time to start working toward my lifelong goal of doing voiceovers.

I'm deeply disappointed that the software has analog-style knobs and not numbers and a slider as a view option.

Its unfortunate that your headphones and your speakers can't be hot at the same time. Incase you are using this with an engineer or someone in the studio editing who needs to hear your reads at the same time. I guess you could set up a situation where your engineer could use the monitor feature in reaper to hear it through separate headphones if needed? Not really sure how that would work

I do small voiceover works on the side, once a month or so. I use only 1 condenser microphone. So EVO 8 is overkill for me. But i still enjoy learning about it. I plan to buy ID4 or ID 14, maybe SSL2. i'm not quite sure so far.

Im waiting on your shure mv7 comparison.

Will this Evo 4 provide me with a mono output. I ask that because I currently had a Focusrite Solo 3rd Gen and when I go live on FB or just record in Quicktime the sound only comes out the left side. I understand that this happens due to the Focusrite Solo considers input 1 (XLR) to be the left channel and the other input (1/4 inch) to be the right channel. Now this would be an easy fix in post with any DAW because I can process the final output in Mono however because I go live and I dont have the option to fix in post. Therefor every time I go live I get stuck with the audio only coming out of the left side as I only have the mic in input 1 (XLR). So my question is would the Evo 4 input 1 (XLR) only record to the left side/channel during recoding or going live or will it record to both the left and right sides?

I actually hate that it's a long press to mute/unmute. There's enough space for dedicated mute toggle for each channel. Don't know why that's not included.

Good I subscribed to your stuff. The bathroom did it. That was some effect using on of 2 sides Amazing. I'm gonna do a closet this way. My problem is neighbours, they can here me singing and I am load. I practice 2 hours. So I must make it silent outside -not totally there are the normal walls too. Inside that I need treatment. At least for a hyper cardioid mic or a SM57. I have large diaphragm but how will they react. I had your TLM103 before an that bastard is unforgiving. Maybe I should make a video? Then I need tempo and "action this day".

Im very skeptical that an aio like this is a better idea than a series of seperate devices that each do their own job well. So having an audio interface like the id4 going to a pc and a mixer and then having the mixer run to headphones and your monitors. Its less simple but it means you can tailor it to your exact setting

Heyyyy you're using a Lewitt! My man! Love to hear your thoughts on the LCT 940 Authentica in time as well!

Great voice. Subbed.

My EVO4 interface started malfunctioning but no response after several complaint on Audient site.

Great stuff for minimalists or people who travel a lot but need more inputs or people with smaller desks. Not for me tho 😅

What do you think of the Solid State Logic SSL2+? That's the one I ended up going with.

Wonderful review! Very interesting audio interface. What about the differences between id14 mkii and EVO 8 in terms of converters and preamps quality, as well as the software stability? The only reason why I would like to have it is that it has four input preamps, but at the same time it doesn't have a DA expansion, that's a pity! Does the converters's quality could justify the charge of 50 bucks's price for the id14 mkii, considering that the EVO 8 has also 2 more mic preamps?

*GOD DAMN are there enough commercials for this broadcast?*

Yet another awesome video, Mike. 👍 Quick question: Is there a way to bypass the preamp inputs on the EVO 8 (like the Return Inserts do on the iD22/44)? I have a dbx 286s (are you still using yours?) and it's hard to find an affordable, quiet interface with inputs that bypass the preamps.

How do the preamps compare to your Audient ID22?

Great walk through! I believe the Focusrite Scarlett interfaces quote 200 ohm as the max headphones it can drive. Can the EVO8 drive 250 ohm headphones? Thanks!

*OK, so what about laptops with the YELLOW USB that is designed to power devices and send data?*

Does apply Phantom Power individually ? or once the phantom power is on all of the mics preamps are powered with Phantom Power?

I'd just like to know about running 2 synths into the inputs. I won't be using mics. I guess I'd hook one synth to inputs 1 and 2 and the other synth into 3 and 4?

Great video! I use the GoXLR Mini with a dual PC. Would this be a good replacement or competitor? Would this work well in combo with the GoXLR Mini?

I have the EVO 8 - using it with a single windows laptop and Pre Sonus software. Today I picked up a Mac Mini to use solely for video editing. Any good ideas how I can marry the two systems together with the EVO? I’m not sure how to use the EVO with both Mac and PC since it only has a single USB-C input.

Can you talk about those 2 blue lights on the back

Two sets of headphone outs are a must for me since moving from a Scarlett 2i2 to an SSL2+. The extra headphone out was the deciding factor for me in getting the 2+ instead of the 2! Your shirt is amazing.

Hi. I was wondering, I have an audient evo 8, and i have it hooked up via PC with studio monitors connected in "1" with TRS cables in the back, and headphones connected to "1" in the front. I have a mic hooked up to "1" on the left back and a keyboard plugged in the back on the left in "2". I tried recording, and everything was recorded fine. However, while I'm playing the keyboard and even the mic, I can't hear anything back. I even tried unplugging my headphones to see if I can hear them through my studio monitors and nothing comes out. I can't figure this out as I've always used Focusrite. Audient Evo seems a bit harder to figure out. I even tried plugging my headphones into my studio monitors and still nothing comes out. But when I record, it plays back

Can this handle line level inputs? Example - main line level analog mixer output

How would you do to use this with a midi interface in Windows? Does anyone know?

With the EVO 8, I am having to max out the headphone level to get barely enough volume to my earbuds during monitoring -- in a quiet room! Very disappointing. Thinking of exchanging for the MOTU. Advice?

Great Device, Love the Design, it's possible to connect my Logitech Z5500 to this Audio Interface? Actually I have focusrite Saffire 24 DSP and I connect in COAXIAL "SPDIF".

Lots of the issues with this interface is the lack of clarity each of the components represent, and could be solved relatively simple with flashing/multi-colored LEDs. Very weird.

evo 8 or scalet 2i2 or motu m2 which is better ?

HI YOU CAN REVIEW OF SHURE MV7 --PLEASE...

hi mike can I use 4 active monitors at the same time or is it just 1 pair at once thanks stu from uk
