C cat Member Aug 2, 2002 #1 Anyone using the Edirol Spdif to USB connector? If so, express your thoughts. The reason for this post is that I am attempting to connect an all-in-one DAW to a PC for editing/ mastering and I'm cheap.

Which one are you using? USB is a VERY slow computer interface. Anything above 4 tracks streaming through it will certainly make it choke. If you want cheap, you shouldn't be looking at USB. Any USB or Firewire device costs more than a PCI counterpart and delivers inferior performance. USB - 12Mbits/sec (1.25Mbytes/sec) Firewire - 400 Mbit/sec (50MBytes/sec) PCI - upwards of 100Mbytes/sec
