For example, a main mix going to outputs вЂњ1 + 2вЂќ and a sub mix going to outputs вЂњ3 + 4вЂќ. This way you can toggle between two mixes. You both can listen via headphones if needed.Д®ach of these headphone outputs also have a button to switch between outputs вЂњ1 + 2вЂќ and вЂњ3 + 4вЂќ. This feature is nice when you have multiple people recording at once or if youвЂ™re an engineerВ recording someone else. For example, my older Presonus Firestudio and even newer interfaces similar to the UMC1820 like the Tascam 16Г—08 and Presonus 1818VSL. This is another added bonus since many interfaces, even at this size, typically only have one headphone output. Rounding out the features on the front, there are also two headphone inputs: So that gives you great flexibility when recording. A lot of interfaces donвЂ™t have a pad function at all, let aloneВ a specific pad for each input. I like the fact that each input has its own pad.

Each input also has a -15 dB pad that you can use when your recording signal is too hot (which can happen when using sensitive condenser microphones). To engage the input for instrument level recording, youвЂ™d just вЂњpress inвЂќ the button labeled, вЂњLine InstвЂќ.

But, when using it live or at practice, as I have with 1820, it doesnвЂ™t really matter. Personally, I like when all of the inputs are on the front when IвЂ™m using an interface like this in my home studio. I think this is entirely a preference thing as to what you like and it depends on your workflow. One with all the inputs on the front of the unit and the other layout with two inputs on the front with the rest on the back.
