------------------------------------------------------------------------
I went to turn on my 828 Mk1 (the older one) and the Mac wouldn't recocgnize it. It was then that I noticed that telltale electrical burning smell that could only mean bad things. I opened it up and the first IC in front of the FireWire port looks burnt. I am right in the middle of an important project and all of it is on AudioDesk/Motu 828.
My questions are:
-is it worth fixing (or even possible)
-Can I use another interface like a newer Motu and still stay in AudioDesk
-Should I look for a used 828 Mk1
God this sucks.
