i know y'all don't care, but i'm excited and wanted to share. ;-P

it's a step up from my audiophile 24/96 and will play nicely with it to give me 10 tracks of inputs. that makes me happy.

mostly i'm looking forward to being able to record more than a stereo acoustic guitar or micing up all of my drums and getting 8 channels of that.

anyway, back to your regularly scheduled grousing. :D

me too! please help

hey mrface 2112, I just stepped up from the 24/96 to a 1010 card last week! I'm having problems though. I too want to use more inputs but when I come out of my direct outs of my board into the INs of the card... my lefts blend with other lefts, and rights with other rights? How do you get your seperation? Please help,
thanx,

Are you hearing a significant difference in the sound quality?

During tracking try panning each channel hard L, hard R and so on. Then when mixing you can set you panning to what you want.
 
I'm envious, I have a Delta 44 right now. I would do just about anything to mic up a full kit. Money is a bit tight right now (understatement, big time.).
 
bone, i'm not sure what to tell ya since i haven't actually *gotten* mine yet (it'll be another week or so before the Man in Brown brings it to the door), although rage's idea sounds like it might be a winner.

of course, it's also subjective based on what software you're using to record. I've been using Nuendo with the 2496 and it treats the tracks as mono and pans them straight up in the middle, so i've not seen what you're seeing. i expect that it'll treat the 1010 the same way as it treats the 2496.

middleman, i'll let you know if i hear an audible difference in sound. i expect to, if not just from the fact that the 1010's inputs are balanced TRS, where as the 2496's inputs are unbalanced RCAs. at bare minimum, i expect to see a noticible difference in the noise floor. i've been thrilled with the sound that i've been getting out of the 2496 thus far, so i'll be doubly thrilled with any improvement.

fatty, i feel your pain. money's tight here too (where isn't it?), but i got a good price on this thing ($350!) so i couldn't pass it up. the wife's gonna kill me, but when she sees that it'll pay for itself within a month (i've already got a couple projects lined up and i'm not above bartering my services for other goods that i'd otherwise be spending my money on), so i think she'll be fine with it. i was debating between this and a motu 2408 (mk2), but someone snagged the motu, so it the decision was made for me.


now i just need to upgrade my computer (p3-450 w/192mb ram).....

Don't worry about the slow comp..
I'm using the 1010 with a 500 celeron, 256 ram, xp pro.
I have no trouble recording 8 drum inputs at once.
I can mix full songs ~15 tracks, with a few plugins with no problems.
