Hey all:

Considering purchasing a MOTU 828. I'd like to use it with my iBook. After recording, I want to be able to disconnect from the hardware and go elsewhere (Starbucks, etc.) and do editing. Can I open and use Audio Desk without the 828, or is it like ProTools systems, which require the attached hardware to open?

Also, any comments on minimum operating system requirements for use with OSX would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Carlos

Hellfire:

Thanks for the response. After doing more research I purchased the 828 MkII, and have been doing exactly what you suggested. I record into AudioDesk (the application that is included with the 828) and then can export the tracks as AIF files. I then can open them with ProTools Free which operates independently of interface hardware. I am able to go off to Starbucks and work on projects at my leisure.

As a bonus I discovered that I can uses the 828 as a front end for the ProTools Free.
