Copper Refrence $Price tag

[lay it prodctions]

In what range should I look to spend for the Copper Reffence and will it come bundle with the full t7 for one set price.

[TSC]

TBH, we have not settled on pricing yet - we are meeting with sales partners at NAMM to finalize it - and yes, it will include our Ultimate Bundle and perhaps some other useful tools too

[lay it prodctions]

I would like to purchase it on as soon as the people at Namm touch it you can sale me the Namm Display, Lol, but um serious I am so proud of the direction TSC is taking Its going be a great 2016 and want to be one of the first to flaunt the best interface of my time on my youtube channel that only dedicated to Tracktion.

[TSC]

Good man - we very much appreciate the support

I too am holding out for the Copper Reference...I've had to recently downsize which meant a smaller mixer on my desk. The GC sales guy was trying to push one of the digital options because of the recording i/o capabilities. My 1st thought was I already have Motu ultralite hybrid & I want to purchase the Copper Reference when it comes out.

Have a good one,

How much for the banana?

[Michael L]

It's the only interface for recording your Moog System 55 into Tracktion

[VariKusBrainZ]

Expensive going by the description.
It's boutique and more than equivalent hardware

[gesslr]

About $5k and available 4-5 months.

Wow.

Really puts the "bou" into boutique.

I hope they put out something more "low end" that integrates especially well with Tracktion.... Sort of the way the Presonus stuff works especially well with StudioOne.

[TSC]

So the price is expensive - and there are no direct comparisons - although you could look at boxes like the Benchmark DAC-2 which is $2k for just the DAC (no ADC or tube overdrive) and built in a basic case.

We are exploring the idea of selling an initial run of units directly to our own user base - by doing this direct, we can sell the unit for much less than going through distribution and sales partners - for those who are interested, sign up for more info on the CU Ref product page on our website - could be as much as 50% off the price that will be needed via traditional methods. There will be limited availability and the goal is to raise funds for wider production

I have seen folk fall into the wrong assumption that ADC/DAC's change frequently - this is a misconception - the silicon chips rarely change and the current best-of-the-best that we have sleeted are likely to hold that spot for a long time - the companies are focused on trying to reduce costs of the current performance - not improve on it. Plus we have specced the brand new Type-C USB connection so the I/O will work with everything for years to come

It really is remarkable what a difference having good convertors makes to your listening experience - certainly as important as a good set of monitors that can run into much higher investments

[Peter Widdicombe]

While I freely admit that I'm NOT one of few that would be anxious to get this high-end of an interface, the comparison to good monitors probably isn't the best comparison. While the monitors are important, they aren't really part of the signal chain; while the Copper interface IS part of your signal chain, and it's quality will have a real impact; both on recording a clean signal; and producing final output (if the final output is sent to analog output devices).

[TSC]

Well if you include the sound reaching your ears as part of the signal chain then the monitors are important too

Look what turned up!
