Hi all,

I have been looking for a FW audio device for some time, and in my price bracket I have decided (I think!) that MOTU offer the best bang for buck. However, I have been trying to make sense of their website, and I'm having a bit of trouble. I was hoping to find a comparison matrix or similar, so that I can compare the features offered by their set of products - but I can't find that anywhere. If such a thing exists, please would someone point me in the right direction?

Basically, I can only see that the Traveler, UltraLite, 896 and 828 differ in terms of number of inputs/outputs, and their abilities to be expanded (ie with 8pre or similar). Is this a fair assessment? Their effects capabilities seem to be pretty standardised across the range.

I would really appreciate somebody's objective view on this, as I have read myself round in circles.

I will likely be using this in studio and live, but it's not going to get heavy "on the road" use, live will mostly be "studio live" i suspect.

Many thanks....
