I've got one of the early ones, too... MP-2H with the unbalanced and balanced outs, bought from Fletcher @ Mercenary way back when (like most of the other stuff I've mentioned...)

Whatever happened to Fletch ?


Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 - Same questions/issues as above, only cheaper and of lesser quality, but readily available now.
Are the Claretts hard to get? They've been out for two years now. Maybe
it's a China manufacturing thing (though that's only an assumption of
both).


I have (amongst several others - several MOTU, Aphex, that old Delta
1010, Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 and 18i20, way back to Turtle Beach
Multisound (wonder how Dave Haynie is going...), and a few others.

Have had no problems whatsoever with the Focusrite drivers or hardware,
or major sound differences wrt mic-fussiness. Everything sounds pretty
much as expected and not significantly different to any of the others.
maybe my hearing is going ...

In fact, unlike in the 'old days' anything USB-based seems a doodle
compared to the previous attachment methods . Only catch is to follow
the instructions as to what to do first - either install the driver or
attach the device.
