Hey all,

I'm purchasing a new powerbook G4 (512mb RAM, 1ghz cpu) for mainly music and was looking into audio interfaces. I do both MIDI and audio recording work and wanted something with MIDI in/out as well as analog and digital inputs/outputs. I prefer having the XLR jacks for recording with mics.

I plan to use either Cubase or Logic, as well as Reason for now. I like the features of the M-Audio Firewire 410 and Omni Studio USB, but am a bit worried about the problems I've been hearing regarding the former.

Would anyone recommend either of them? And if not, any alternate suggestions?

Thanks!

we took the M-audio firewire for a spin, trying to record a cool jam. FYI - you cannot record 4 ins at the same time.
yeah, we had a few issues.
if you are looking for that or more - then this card is not for you.

i like the looks of the QUATA-Fire from EgoSys but the inputs are unballanced apart from the two XLRs. Nice features otherwise though.

we really do need some more 1/3rack fw options.
