after 2 + years struggling with
my Presonus Firebox and issues with it I am considering "upgrading" to a MOTU Ultralite Do you use one? what are you're thoughts? What software do you use with it? does it function properly every time? I am running a iBook G4 1.2ghz 1.25GB Ram but often get poping and clicking and other digi noise with the firebox, I NEED reliability! and record live shows in the field There for I need a reliable unit that can function (by battery) with lack of "wall" power... any insight would be very helpful thanx -- Ian -------------------- ~ Archival Audio ~

I can only tell you I've never seen a complain here about this one… Now as no one complained I can't tell for the field question marks.
I'll get back to you later, got to seep really now (5:30 am… erk!) Your issue with the PreSonus are bewildering…  It shouldn't be the case. Now I've never thought of any interface from them as built for the use in the wild and salvage world…

I assume since it is a MOTU product and comes with the ultralite that it will work great with it... any thoughts? thanx -- Ian -------------------- ~ Archival Audio ~
