HI,
I have just bought a PB 512mb etc...Ideally I would like to plug my guitar, vocals, 2nd guitar and hopefully 4th vocals in for live performance. Can I use the firewire 410 for this. I assume so but my real question is then if I am using program...say logic or protools can I then loop what I am playing through the computer, back to amp and then to the speakers. I am kind of confused as to what the out in the audio interfaces do....do they take the sound coming in, allow it to go through the computer program and then back along that channel to the out? Sorry if this seems to be a stupid question I currently have a powered mixer which lets me record into garageband (which i know is great for simple things but not multichannel simultaneous editing and recording) obviously 1 channel at a time but its hopeless for intergrating my powerbook for a live gig. |

With the Firewire 410 you can only use 2 inputs at a time. You might look at the Firewire 1814 for that.
I don't know about your other questions, you may have to get something like a Boomerang to do your looping or Live might be able to do it. |

Checkout the Yamaha 01 Digital Mixing Studio (http://www.01xray.com), which sells around $1500.
It connects via Firewire to your Mac, and provides you with 8 Analogue input channels, and transfer of up to 24 channels between the Mac and the 01x. Many effects Many filtering facilties Remote control for the DAW 2x Midi in/Out S/PDif digital in and out 2 pedal operation for easy remote control Need I say more? |

And what I forgot to mention in my previous post: direct input for your electric guitar or bass.
