Noise Compared - Behringer, Focusrite, NI, Roland, Steinberg, Zoom (with Shure SM7B and SM57)
The preamp performance of audio interfaces is often stated with the equivalent input noise. This value describes how much noise is produced when the interface is used with a dynamic microphone. But how do these numbers translate into the real world and how much noise can you really expect? In this video I record some audio with 9 different interfaces in combination with a Shure SM7B and SM57. This will should give you a good indication of how these interfaces compare to each other in terms of preamp noise performance.
