Hi folks, relative noob here, but not new to the biz. I've been out of the game for a while and still have a decent recording computer rig, mikes, etc. But my I/O interface has gotten nice and obsolete. And kind of broken. And out of business. I'm looking for suggestions for an I/O rig.
Requirements include that it be at least and 8X8, since I'll be recording live situations including full drumkits. My mobo is a fairly recent high-end ASUS that has a firewire port on it, but I've never tried it. I've heard that some I/O's are really fussy about the firewire chipsets. So, that's a big "if". Also, optical I/O is nice and midi is a virtual must. Price is a consideration also, but stability, support and reliability are just as important, if not moreso.
System is a P-4, gobs of RAM, fires up and runs just fine and all that.
So tell me, what should I buy?
