Hey everyone, I just purchased a 667mhz Tibook, with the 30gb hd, and the 32 mb radeon card, so its not the older 667. Now my question is, i want to use it for recording pretty much, and I have a desktop, but all i want, and all i need, is an interface that provides me with adat.....8in/8out.....or maybe more , if its only adat? I dont need analouge out, everything is going directly to a Tascam DM24 digital mixer. or also if it has a headphone input so i can mix with low-latency on the go? A midi interface would be nice, but im sure a usb one would work fine.... but those are the main things, id like it to have adat so i can use it while in the studio, and a headphone output, with eith whatever logic or cubase (asio) supports so i can monitor and edit things as i go along. Whether is firewire or usb? I'm not sure? but i think firewire would be the better choice? Post your opinions, and if it works with osX , which will be the audio OS soon enough, that would be cool too, thanks = )

do NOT use usb. VERY clumsy for audio, lots of artifacts. i've never tried the m.box, and i hear it's all right, but i don't know. any bus that claims to be the best route for your mouse and your printer can't possibly be the best route for audio, don't you think?
firewire audio is great. painless. likewise cardbus, although i personally don't like the inevitable proprietary cable that goes from the audio interface to the pc card. if you're on the road, and something happens to that cable, you're in trouble. with firewire (i.e. motu 828, etc.) the cable is standard and cheap; you can get one a radio shack. just my two cents. -------------------- there can be hours between the so and the what of the so
