hello,
I had my mind set on the MBox to go with my new powerbook and figured it would be a good interface for my PC desktop and Mac laptop. However, after doing some search here, USB interfaces appear to be troublesome, and plus MBox doesn't have MIDI in/out, which can come in handy from time to time for me.
So, I began looking at the MAudio 410, a firewire solution that covers my needs (2 pres, MIDI capability, and cross-platform) But then I'm reading some issues with the 410 being picky about the fw chip..arrgh...(my powerbook has fw 400+800 IEEE 1394a)
Can someone please give me a suggestion just which one of the 2 fu*ks up less? Or if you recommend something else alone the prices of the 2 units above, please do so.
