The Onyx Producer 2•2 is similar to the Onyx Artist 1•2, but with a few more bells and whistles.
Here the Onyx Producer 2•2 is designed with the home studio engineer and/or mobile recording
engineer in mind. Let’s look at the inputs first. Just like with the Onyx Artist 1•2, a microphone
is connected to XLR input 1 and a guitar to 1/4" input 2 (with the Hi-Z switch engaged).
As with the previous hookup diagram, the output section here is as straightforward as the input
section. Here we connected a pair of XR Series studio monitors to the L/R line output jacks and a pair
of headphones are connected to the phones output jack. Additionally, a computer installed with your
favorite DAW is connected to the USB port on the rear panel.
Lastly, the only hookup difference between the two Onyx USB Interfaces. Here a synthesizer with
MIDI I/O is connected to the MIDI I/O of the Onyx Producer 2•2.
That was our part. The next part is up to you... writing and recording!
