and it seems to have a better rep. then Maxtor....

Powerbook: Firewire Port/external Hard Drive

Hi,
I use an M-audio Firewire 410 to record on my computer.
I wanted to buy a Maxtor External Hard drive to record audio as I am running out of space on my built-in drive.

I only have one firewire port though--So I can't use the Maxtor and M-Audio at the same time.
Should I use the USB 2.0 cord for the Maxtor or can I get a hub to use both Firewires at the same time.

How important is the firewire vs. USB when it comes to me recording live audio onto an external harddrive?

Please help me out,
Thanks!

Logic Environment & Alesis Qs8.1

What is the best way to set-up my Alesis QS8.1 with Logic Express?
It seems to set-up fine (except for the patch and bank names).
However, is there a better way to set-up the environment???
I searched for current version environments but I cannot find any.

Thanks,
Jon

How-to? Alesis Qs8.1 + M-audio 410

Hello!

This is probably the lamest question ever...
but I just bought an M-audio Firewire 410 and I am trying to get it hooked up to my Alesis Qs8.1 so that I can begin to record with Logic Express.

I set up the Midi In/Out from the keyboard to the Firewire and Logic Express recognizes the Midi Data from the keyboard if I hit the keys....
And I have it set to MultiTimbral....and all that.
***However, I hear no sound***

I would like to hear the sounds of my Alesis Qs8.1 through the M-Audio. (I have headphones attached to the M-audio) How do I get the Alesis sounds to record as Midi AND hear them?

Does this mean that I have to connect the "audio out" of the Alesis to the "audio in" of the 410?
I hope someone understands what I'm trying to accomplish.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks,
Jon
