Agreed, I'm not sure what they want out of the rpi. If it's only 1-2 (xlr) mics, I would use a Scarlet 2i2 audio interface if possible and connect via its usb

Agreed, I'm not sure what they want out of the rpi.
If it's only 1-2 (xlr) mics, I would use a Scarlet 2i2 audio interface if possible and connect via its usb out. Although I have no idea how well it works with raspbian / ARM operating systems. There may be another type of interface that works with the rpi.
Either way, this is rather niche and goes beyond the rpi is intended for. You can still achieve rather good sound on a budget with a usb microphone depending on the room setup, etc.
- rhinoceraptor 7y agoIt's strange how since the Raspberry Pi is so capable now, people expect them to build in all kinds of professional features into a $35 educational computer (PXE boot, pro audio, etc.).
- gsich 7y agoThe Pi can network boot.
- rhinoceraptor 7y agoI think maybe the 4 dropped that feature or maybe they're adding it via firmware? I remember reading a story about a company hosting dedicated servers on Raspberry Pis and complaining how they couldn't network boot on the 4, which is just ridiculous.
- magicalhippo 7y agoIt's not implemented at launch, but the boot loader code is no longer in ROM so can be changed, and they said they will bring network booting later this year. https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/booteeprom.md https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberry... "Support for these additional bootmodes will be added in the future via optional bootloader updates. The current schedule is to release PXE boot first, then USB boot."
- justin66 7y agoThey released the 4 without netboot and USB boot. The rough timeline that I read regarding firmware updates indicates that network boot will be done in a couple of weeks and USB boot will be done in about six weeks.
