Having finally invested in Logic Pro 7, and familiarising myself with its capabilities, I'm wondering if anyone has used a Boss BR1600CD as an interface, and if so, what is the best (and cheapest) way to connect it to a Powerbook G4.
Rather than investing in another device (ie Edirol FA-101), I'm hoping that I can utilise all the XLR and RCA inputs of the BR1600CD to capture into Logic Pro 7. The BR1600CD can transfer MIDI to my laptop, but I actually want to capture real instruments into Logic Pro 7 and be able to monitor them in the same way as an FA-101 would allow for instance. It is possible to transfer tracks one at a time over USB (after recording), but this method appears to be slower than continental drift, and doesn't allow for 'live' monitoring. In the hope that a visual helps, Boss BR1600CD Am I merely postponing an inevitable purchase of more equipment? Or is there someone who can help by recommending a solution? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi All:
There is a new one on the Motu side. They call it: UltraLite it is about $ 549,oo and it seems to be OK. Half rack space...I guess I´wll do that one. If you are a musician writing songs..what do you need 8 mic preamps for ? And 36 outs...? We have to start thinking in our real needs instead of Ad´s. It is just an opnion... Keep working
