I understand that there are cards for the 01V to send out multiple tracks ( I want 8 at least) What is the best way to get multiple tracks from the Yamaha to the Mac? I am smart ( yes we all think that of ourselves but I was a math major and I am now a doctor so I can comprehend somewhat) but fairly acronym and jargon impaired so a simple explanation would best for me at this stage of things. Thanks Mike mclifford@mdlv.com

Okay, you need a digital i/o card for the 01v - adat format is quite common - so ask your friendly yamaha dealer for the my8at card. Next step is adat i/o for the mac. You have two options: pci card with adat i/o - like a lot of cards already have: digi001, rme hammerfall etc. or you go via firewire: motu 828 would be a good choice. To avoid any further problems, it's always good to stick to a company with experience in mac audio (digi or motu) or to take a special mac version of the card (rme). Kind regards Walter

I was going to offer my suggestion for what we found to be the best solution, but looks likt Mike beet me too it. We are going to get a my8at, Robbie at Mountain Beach had the best price I found, www.mtbeach.com. We are also going to get the Motu 828, nice piece of hardware, plugs in via fire wire, so it's very portable. The Digi001 was are second choice. www.performanceaudio.com had the best price on both. They are ProTools fanatics though, and will probably convince you to get the Digi001. I still prefer what I get with the Motu device over the Digi and Protools. I hope this helps, Good luck with your setup! Greg Montgomery

I also got digital Performer 3.0 and so far have been able to bring both audio and MIDI in. Still need some experience with the more advanced functions but at least I'm recording to the hard drive.
