Fantastic product but some things to keep in mind

By Amazon Customer on September 20, 2011

Verified Purchase

I have two of these units strapped together to provide for a total of 16 ports. I am absolutely thrilled with the performance. I had a single MOTU 828 MKII which was working fine but I really wanted more ports and you cannot use ASIO drivers for multiple devices. I was particularly impressed with the documentation of this product which is significantly better than what you get used to for music products that you end up buying. Someone actually tried to write a manual which made the product useable quickly. Greatly appreciated! I will alert you to a few things NOT in the manual or not obvious that will help a lot and avoid problems:

Do NOT use the Octa-Capture on a USB 3.0 port. Despite the spec saying they are backward compatible you will get nothing but horrid garbage if you try to record. The interface can be seen and configured without a problem from the Octa-Capture control program but that is deceptive. Put it on a USB 2.0 port or be sorry. I spent a LOT of time wondering what was wrong before I figured this simple thing out.

If you put two Octa-Captures together you set the clock master to have VS100 Expansion mode OFF and the slave to have it on. Then you connect the S/PDIF out of the master to the S/PDIF in of the slave unit. You HAVE to leave the master S/PDIF in and the slave S/PDIF out ports unused. Don't try to be clever and find a new IO path because that will make the system NOT work. Again, not documented but something to think about. Take your main outs from the slave not the master. Make sure the digital audio port is set to auto on both units.

Be aware that you can only use 4 ports if you are running 192Khz sampling rates and that you cannot strap two Octa-Captures together if you do that also.Read more ›

Excellent USB 2.0 Audio Interface

By Gideon October on February 7, 2011

Verified Purchase

This unit works great with an HP Pavilion Dv7 laptop Win7 64. My DAW is Reaper. I am using separate HD 7200 for audio recording and have 8 gigs of ram. This replaced my defective MBOX3 which I returned to Avid after hours of trying to get it to work.

For the same price, I was able to get the Octa-Capture which does much more than the MBOX ever did. You can record up to 10 tracks at a time. WOW! Also, there are 10 outputs, and each pair of outs has it's own mixer. The practical application is different monitor mixes for each band member. (time to upgrade to in-ear monitors) There is a screen on the unit which doubles the information provided via the Win7 driver control panel. So that means you can use the unit as a mixer without the computer.

Also included is MIDI in/out. This was a must for our Roland V-drum kit which triggers our Superior Drummer software. A word about latency: This goes down to 48spls. This is the fastest turn around I have ever used, and it is certainly the fastest I have seen for a USB 2.0. It works if your just triggering a software synth very nicely. However, when my band tried triggering the synth and recording 8 tracks of 24bit audio, we experienced occasional dropouts in playback and recording (once ever 10-20min) This is more the fault of the computer than the OCTA-CAPTURE, as I'm sure on a more powerful system you could probably avoid dropouts. For example, I bet an i7 MacBook Pro would probably be perfect for this unit. Or, probably a powerful desktop. The most stable compromise we found for out computer was setting the buffer to 128, which allowed for flawless recording and decent low latency midi triggering and monitoring.Read more ›

A+ For Octa-Capture - only game in town for Windows7x64

By Tungsten on April 8, 2012

Verified Purchase

+1 on the Roland Octa-Capture, despite the price - I started out in the $400 budget range and was beaten into reasonableness by purchasing and returning other products.
I'm a windows 7 x64 user, a happy owner of a fastrack pro but wanted more tracks. I just went through an extensive search, and one thing I kept seeing come up was the relatively new Roland Quad-Capture and Octa-Capture. However because of budget constraints and the fact that I use Studio One V2, I decided to to the FW route and try the FireStudio Project - big mistake - I wrote a separate review for that product, which is ultimately a one-star as would be any review I'd give to a FireWire product at this point.
In the end after a lot of painful purchase/return trial-and-error, I paid up considerably from my original ~$400 budget for an Octa-Capture and boy was I amazed - it turned out to be totally worth it. This thing worked perfectly out of the box, the driver / mixer software is awesome, it has a lot of nice features which I thought I didn't need such as a good interface on the front panel, quick and handy load/save of mixer pre-sets, and even some decent preamps and compressors. Also great software metering which is something I didn't realize I was missing on my old FastTrack. I bought this thing very reluctantly because it was "the only game in town" that had more or less universally good reviews. Now I am totally glad I did, and I do not hesitate to recommend that you do the same.

Nice Interface

By Damien on February 24, 2014

Verified Purchase

I've only had this for a few months, so I'm giving it a temporary 4 star review, until it's really proven itself.

My thoughts so far:

PROS:
- The direct monitoring dsp is the best feature, by far on this. The reverb sounds super lush, and does help improve performance
- The "Autosens" automatic gain function is truly a wonderful feature
- I appreciate the compact footprint, and the screen and menus are very easy to navigate
- Good, transparent sound (I still have more analyzing to do on this front)
- Software mixer is simple and easy to use

NEUTRAL
- Driver can be buggy, but I think this has more to do with my USB controller then it does to do with the OctaCapture.

CONS:
- Headphone amp doesn't have a lot of headroom. Acceptable, but not much power to spare if you are using large studio-phones
-.The jacks are not anchored to the faceplate. They seem to only be anchored internally to the board. I'm sure it's fine, but I have concerns about the long-range durability of such construction (might need a touch-up on soldiering in the future).
- The headphone amp is a little noisy. Not distractedly so, but you can hear some low level hiss.

I'll check back as I get more time on this unit.
