I currently own a UR44 which I use for recording. It came with Cubase AI and Basic FX Suite, including VST plugins for Rev-X reverb. Now I am thinking of getting a UR12, which I would use exclusively for mixing purposes (no recording). My questions are:
-
The Rev-X plugins will still work, right? The UR12 doesn’t support it with DSP, but I won’t be monitoring any live signals anyway. So as long as my computer can handle it, it seems like it should be fine. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
-
The UR12 has fewer outputs than the UR44 (namely, one L/R and one headphone jack). When I’m working on a project on the UR44 and then I switch to the UR12, I’d like the main output to work properly without the hassle of re-configuring my VST connections every time. Will this be possible? (I suppose in the worst case scenario I could set up presets for each device, but I’d still like to know in advance how “fluid” the transition will be.)
-
Are there any other issues that I haven’t thought of??
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Guess I’ll answer my own question, because I decided to get a UR12 and try it for myself. Everything seems to work just fine across both devices, including the Rev-X plugins. I do have to reroute the VST connections when switching between the two, but this is pretty quick after setting up presets for each.
