Well a rookie needs help...I've bought (well actually I'll propably get it this week) a 12" PowerBook and now I'm looking for a sequecer and a audio/midi interface.
I'm mainly interested in Logic and I was looking for a A62m with it but now I ran into a M-Audio firewire 410. So are there any experiences about using FireWire410 with OSX and Logic6? thanks for your advice! |

The word on the 1884, as far as my eyes and ears tell me is, "It's a hit!" Anyone who has plunked down their fat sack of cash to buy one seems pretty stoked about it. At one time or another, I've tried all of Tascam's USB devices (428, 224, 122) and they all worked fine, so it's no surprise to me that their FireWire model rocks.
If you can stretch to it financially, FireWire is automatically better than USB (uh-oh - incoming USB defence lobbyists!), so "even" if you bought the M-Audio 410, you'd probably have more joy at cramming tons of audio tracks down it's little pipes than you would with a USB device. If you have modest requirements and sparse arrangements or use mainly Midi, USB is fine. If you want to actually control a full-on audio mix like in a proper recording studio, you probably need FireWire. For which, the Tascam seems like a comprehensive solution. |
