First of all i'd like to say hello this is the first time on the site just found it like a hour ago wish i woulda found earlier.

Hi, I'm using my MOTU 828 markII as an interface for my computer.
In my other room I have a drum set. I have a HP PreSonus which I'm trying to use for the drummer to listen to the track but I don't know how to connect it to the MOTU 828 an get sound from it.
Please help me .

In the manual for the 828 it says
"If your host audio software does not support WDM drivers,
enable wave driver compatibility in the MOTU audio WDM driver
so that all of the 828mk11's inputs and outputs show up in your software."

What it means is to enable the (MME) drivers which are less efficiant and
it even states it.

Hi. I currently work with an M-audio 1010LT. Not high-endI know. I would definitely like to have at least 16 channels of I/O into my DAW and have looked at many ways to achieve this. MOTU seems to be the first thing that comes to mind in the PCI arena. There are also a lot of firewire interfaces with up to 8 channels like the PreSonus stuff and Alesis.

i just bought an 828mkII second hand, and until i get the 896 and a new computer, i'm just going to use the 828 as an a/d converter for all my external preamps and amp simulators. but i can't seem to get the 8 anologue ins to go out the lightpipe out, hmmm, and the module didn't come with a manual either, and MOTU wants me to pay 20 bucks to get a manual. .

I have a PreSonus DIGIMAX that I would like to run all 8-ADAT inputs into an interface that will accept them at 96k (if at all possible). I also want the interface to have a few of it's own inputs and even a second ADAT input. I have a Sony Vaio PC with Windows XP Media Center and I use Cubase SX3, so it will have to be compatable with all of those.

I just made the plunge into firewire recording, just ordered a 16 channel firewire mixer. I am really nervous about the latency issue, I had a standalone unit which does not have that problem. How do I go about connecting a external firewire hard drive and the interface together on a laptop? Most recommend an external drive for recording.

hello, i am a musician, but new to recording work. i wish to do a professional quality recording in the most affordable way. so i prefer to buy a firewire interface rather than a usb interface. a Yamaha personal firewire interface GO46 has caught my attention. it has two firewire ports, both are 6-pin type. however, my dell laptop has only one 1394 firewire port, it is a 4-pin firewire port.

sorry to come in here full guns blazing but I need info :D

right, first off let me enplane, I am and always have been an analog engineer, I own this, it is old, but I love her!

Hi

I have a Focusrite Saffire and I'm thinking of getting an Acer laptop (Acer Aspire 9800 series).

I was cautioned by someone that Acers sometimes have problems with firewire audio interfaces. Has anyone dad any experience of this compatability issue?
