hi. I have a powerbook G4 and am looking to record voice and guitar onto Pro Tools Free. I have been reading your posts about audiosport quattro and other devices. i was wondering if anyone could compare Emagic Emi 2/6 with M-Audio USB Duo? is the Duo even on the market anymore? I heard that there were problems... Also is it possible to get perfect time recording with USB? i know firewire is much better but is the sound quality really that noticable if the mics are good? also can someone explain the benefit of having a midi port? if you wanted to use sound effects or a keyboard couldnt you mic it in okay? and also does anyone with a laptop have a delta series m-audio device? ok thats it thanks if you can anwers any of these... love rachel

It was the UA-30, and yes it's 16 bit. I was attempting to use it for recording stereo mixes out of a digital mixing board, using Apogee's UV22 to reduce bit depth. I subsequently bought an Alesis Masterlink for 2-track 'pre-mastering' duties. It does a much better job with less hassle, and I can apply compression, limiting, EQ and gain changes at 24 bits before rendering at 16 bits for CD burning.
