The 410 has never really worked. Every driver has some kind of issue. Hanging MIDI notes; Loss of audio monitoring, being just the most recent things. It's well spec'd, but doesn't deliver. They've had long enough to get it right..
I need something with solid dependability, low latency and the usual. I'll move away from Cubase and Garageband and get a new DAW. WHAT'S GOOD? MBox 2 Pro? At least it'd come with a good DAW.. or MOTU UltraLite? and maybe get Logic Express or something?.. |

What do you use it for usually and what do you need software wise?
I'd say jump on the M-box or other Digi hardware if you're using almost only audio while in the computer. If you want extensive MIDI support, don't need specific RTAS/AS plug-ins, Logic may be a better choice and then the audio interface side of things is way more open. -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
