I've had so many recommendations that my head is going to explode, and yet I'm still asking for help - [size="4"][/size] begging for help.
I have an Alesis HD24XR and a brand new MacPro Dual Quad, 3TB/16GB RAM. I used to have a Dell, and after fighting this thing (that's why they call 'em workstation) I finally gave up, took out my drives, threw it down the stairs, then went online and bought the Mac. I don't want to invest in cheap bottom of the line stuff, but don't have a lot of cash after buying the Mac I am in need of help finding the right interface (or sound card) and the right software for the Mac. I've been told ProTools is good, but I want to move 24 tracks, so do I need to spend a ton of money The M2...whatever only does two tracks. Help i am lost!! I'm an old school analog guy, wanting to get into the DAW age... |

The Digi003 has plenty of input available....18 available tracks total. The rack version just became available. MOTU has some good multi channel interfaces as does RME (the Hammerfall). Any of the above would work just fine.
