Audient Evo 16?
 

Audient Evo 16 looks pretty cool. Is USB 2 good enough? Has anybody here tested it with Pro Tools buffer 64 on Windows? Click/pops at 64? Thanks!

This review claims they work well at low buffers ... https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews...nt-evo-4-evo-8

And here they list DAW Roundtrip Software Monitoring Latency for buffer 32 https://evo.audio/products/audio-int...s/evo-4/specs/ Has anybody tried buffer 64 with a lot of tracks? Does it work?

Re: Audient Evo 16?
 

USB 2 is absolutely fine for good interfaces with good drivers.

EVO 16 is brand new. Not sure it has hit retail just yet so you might not get an answer.

Got this answer back from the Audient Help Desk:

Hi,
You can run the EVO 16 at buffer 32 to 2048 at 44.1/48 or 32 to 4096 at 88.2/96k.
Thanks

Anybody tried it (or perhaps Evo 4 or 8) at buffer 64 on Pro Tools/Windows/lots of tracks? Clicks or pops?

Pretty much every USB audio interface is using USB2.0

The theory says you would only need USB3 if you have lots of simultaneous inputs.

Focusrite did a write up on this awhile back for those interested

Though I believe Thunderbolt is a different story because of how it accesses the CPU.

I've done a full video about the EVO 16 that covers everything here:

It's a really nice interface, especially for the price.

Re: Audient Evo 16?
 

Whether or not you get clicks/pops at a 64 buffer will depend on your PC.

I have 20 cores and 96GB ram and it seems to do fine. But if I had 6 cores and 8GB ram I'm sure it would struggle, like any other interface.

(The Audient looks good, but) I ended up getting the PreSonus Quantum 2626. Works great!

Re: Audient Evo 16?
 

But anyone got evo16, I'm worried a bit about plastic case If this would be great for a band tour
