I have an old G4 400MHz, running old Logic (4.8), using Edirol USB audio interface - I'm upgrading to Logic Pro7 and Panther, I want to upgrade the I/F to allow at least 4 inputs, so I was thinking of the Edirol FA101 or the M-Audio FW 1814. I checked their minimum requirements and it says 700Mhz minimum... does anyone have experience of using a firewire audio I/F with an older 400Mhz G4? Will I be unable to use any Firewire I/F with my old Mac? Will I need to upgrade the Mac before I can get 4 or 6 inputs?
hope someone can help me? |

I'd look after the MOTU 828/828 mk2, first version was around at the time. but the first verison wasn't as good as it could have been, some had problems too.
There wasn't any other FW interface around at the time. I say all this from memory, crosscheck the specs to be sure. now PCI systems should work just fine. (2408/mk2+pci324) (but not the 24 In/out at the same time
