We are currently using an old mixer and Quattro to bring in live guitar and vocals into our Mac. We use the Bias suite of software. Everything works just OK because of the usb and input limitations. We plan on upgrading to a firewire setup soon. We've been eyeing the M-Audio FW410. The saleman at Guitar Center said we could expand it's capabilites with the Behringer ADA8000. If this is true we could add more inputs and even mic the drums. Has anyone tried this or added input ports to a FW410 using something else?

This is a great reason not to buy studio gear from guitar center!

The ADA8000 is an impressive product. The idea is not new, 8 mic pres, spit out over 1 Adat lightpipe...but the price sure is!

Problem is that the firewire 410 might have jacks that look like adat, but they are just digital optical (stereo only, used for cd/md players, as well as new G5).

M-audio makes a product called an 18/14 (very similar looking to 410, with more ins and outs..as well as Adat..just don't look for it on their website, not there yet).

Other options would be getting something like the presonus firepod, 8 mic pres over firewire.

I've used similar adat 8/preamp devices (presonus' actually) with my digi 001. They do work great. Just make sure you have the righht interface...and if you can, get something better than Behringer.
