Remote control of your Quantum! Or maybe the Studio Series 1824 for example might be a good alternative. Quantum also has very tight integration with Studio One. You may find for very fast input monitoring the 003 may not be so great but a modern interface will be. Not only that Quantum offers blistering latency which is great for input monitoring ultra fast with no delays. This will be a more modern interface with better sounding converters than the 003 era. With one or two ADAT optical Mic preamps attached you can end up with 24 input channels. Otherwise look at some of the excellent PreSonus interface range. You could add a few powerful external synths to this too. Would not be hard to get 4 channels of Mic Pres either (from a reasonable mixer with direct outs) and end up with 16 Mic input channels.Ġ03 also has Midi IN and 2 Midi OUTS which means up to 32 channels of external synth hardware can be addressed at once. So you could end up with 12 Mic Ins or 16 line INs and 16 outs.

The Behringer 8200 has Midas preamps in it by the way if you are wondering about quality. I assume you don't mean the rack but the desktop version.Ġ03 has an optical connection both ways which means if you add something like the Behringer 8200 which will give you an extra 8 inputs and outputs for very reasonable money you can expand your 003 out a fair bit. You might be able to map some of the faders and things to Studio One as well.ĭon't forget there are total of 8 inputs. It will either work or not and most often it will!) It won't hurt to just install the driver anyway. Just because they are not listed in the Avid drivers page does not mean they won't work either. (Note: Don't rule out High Sierra or even the later MAC OS either. looks like on a MAC it only goes up to Sierra for example you should be OK. Providing you have the right OS version e.g.
