thanks! thanks guys. i wasn't aware in the difference of terms. yep, i'm familiar with motu. i've owned an 828 and 896. i'm looking for something more portable and i really don't need any preamps and such. just a way to transfer 8 digital tracks via adat lightpipe to my laptop via firewire or...

anyone know of a simple interface to get 8 channels of audio via toslink (adat) thru firewire or usb? we've been using a yamaha 01v with an adat card for gigs and i'd love to be able to mult the mix to the 8 tracks of adat and record on my ibook. fwiw, i'd be using dp (or pt) on a mac. thanks...

ok, i'm more than a bit embarassed to ask this. but i'm more curious than embarassed, so here goes: is the stereo field represented with an omni mic? ok, there i asked it. whew! i've been using omni mics for quite awhile. and i've been thinking of a way to simply record and instrumental...

lotsa o mixers out there... i recently bought a seck 1882 for about $600. 18 channels w/inserts, 8 busses, inline monitoring, quiet, good headroom. very versatile board for mixing and sounds good. i've also been tempted by the tascam 2516. 16X8X2, good i/o and metering, inline monitoring. they...

hey folks, here's what's left from the first round and some additions as well: 1) altec 438c tube mono comp - like the 436 but with attack and release controls. completely gone thru by a tech in nashville and in perfect working and cosmetic condition. i had balanced 1/4" trs i/o added so it...

hey guys, still in spring cleaning mode and have some more stuff to get rid of: 1) funk logic chevy rack tray for 2 fmr rnc comp's with the filler kit. you can get all the details at http://www.funklogic.com/RN-Chevy.htm. i bought one of those fancy new wooden dealies and don't need it...

that nati! hey pat, a fellow porkopolian! nah, a dat is only a stereo recorder. l/r, not 2 single channels really. tho i guess you could use it as dual mono... i don't think a dat is what you're looking for. try posting a q to the appropriate forum. also, why not multitrack with your pc...

la2a like indeed i've had my pair of pro vla's for about 3-4 years now and have logged many hours on them. i absolutely love them. they are defintely optical comps and i really dig that medium for comping everything but stuff with a fast attack (snare, bass drums, etc). very musical, very...

hey guys, still cold here in ohio but i feel like spring cleaning. here's some stuff i'd like to get rid of. some prices are firm, some aren't, try me :-) i don't need much, but i could be tempted by a ribbon mic or something of the sort... 1) ua 1176 reissue - i bought this new just a couple...

i was thinking of just adding an external firewire drive, i could get up to 7200... i was referring more to internal settings to increase cpu availability. thanks! tony

hi, i've got an ibook g3/600 with 640mb of ram that i've been using with a motu 896 firewire system. i've got the 30gb hard drive paritioned to 3 10gb sections. one for osx, one for os9 (and digital performer), and one for audio. what else can i do to increase the track count i can process...

hi, i've been learning to use my motu 828 system (with a g3/500 ibook using audiodesk) abd want to start messing with rythmn. i've used acid a bit in the pc realm, anything similar for mac? i know i'll need to upgrade to digital performer if i need midi... thanks! tony

i've been using a motu 828 with my ibook (g3/500mhz/20gb hd) and can only process 12-14 tracks (depending on fx and such). seems the slow hard drive in the ibook is the culprit. is there a way to use a faster, external firewire harddrive with this rig? i can't seem to find it referenced in the...

anyone familiar with these? i need a cheap mixer with alot of channels for a rehearsal space that's also used for recording. the console wouldn't be used for tracking, but rather for just jamming and occasionally not so serious mixing. i ran across one locally for cheap that appears to be in...

i've been considering one of the motu firewire interfaces, but have heard rumblings of problems between motu's and pc's. anyone care to comment? also, would a firewire motu and vegas be friendly to one another? thanks! tony

thanks! thanks guys! my only reason for wanting 8 i/o's is more for mixing than recording. i have a nice, vintage ward beck console that i love mixing thru. my thought was i could mult everything into 8 tracks within the pc and mix thru my console. this way, i could still use all my outboard...
