hey,

Gonna need a new interface when I upgrade to a G5... I'm looking at the Edirol FA 66 & the Presonus Firebox. I'm using Logic 7. I know there's the thread regarding the Presonus, but anyone have an FA66?

Thanks,
d

Just installed an Edirol FA101... apart from the obvious I'm not sure what the differences are on the FA66 anyway...

Super simple installation on the Mac (class compliant - no drivers needed)... sounds sweet so far and no problems... I like the hard switch sample rate setting etc...

Only have two minor gripes. The first is that the two Neutrik's on the front are kinda hard wired (hi-z/lo-z) which means that input 1 is designed for mic and 2 is mic/instrument but switchable... nearly all my apps look for my guitar on line 1 by default. Woulda been nice if both 1/2 were switchable but, I realise, it's a minor quibble.

Only other minor downside is the Firewire chain... the FA101 doesn't seem to like additional high bandwidth devices and sometimes will cut out if a new drive comes online. This usually means a quick power cycle and it's fine again but a minor gripe...

Other than that it's compact and efficient and I like it. biggrin.gif
