kylekrische Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Hey guys, hoping for some help here. Don't know if what im doing is totally wack but im just waiting on a phono pre im getting from a friend when his new pre is built. In the meantime im looking to reduce space and not spend money. I have: Uturn audio turntable and rokit 8 powered speakers. I'm Seeing if it's possible to run my Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 recording interface as the preamp until I get my actual phono pre? Link to the Focusrite: http://us.focusrite.com/usb-audio-interfaces/scarlett-18i8 Could I get some sort of adapter that turns the RCA cables into a 1/4" input/inputs and run it thru the Focusrite? Is this possibly? Am I crazy? Will lose it being stereo? Will I have to run a computer as well to tell it what to do? Like I said, don't know anything about this, just thought hey this might work. Wondering if anyone can help me out or tell me not to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

castaway Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 You need specifically a phono preamp for its RIAA equalization. kidamnesiac and kamalatapes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
