Dual Interface Setup (Radial LX-2, Apollo Twin X, Audient iD4)

Working from home, I recently found myself in a situation where I needed my Audient iD4 daily as a general purpose interface, and my Apollo Twin X on a regular basis for serious recording.

Not only that, but I also wanted to use my main analog vocal chain with both interfaces as smoothly and as easily as possible.

The Radial LX-2 line-level splitter ended up being the key to making my day-to-day dual interface + vocal chain setup happen.

It enables you to take any line-level source and split it/send it to 2 different destinations.

I'm of course using the LX-2 a certain way... But if ever you want to split a line-level signal for a studio or live setup using a simple DI-sized box, you may also find use for the LX-2.

Where I got my LX-2...
