Hi - I've been following Tascam's recent release of their new IF-FW/DM Firewire expansion card for their DM-24 digital mixer. Apparently, with the expansion card installed on the DM-24, you're able to have 24 inputs and outputs from your DAW to the DM-24 over a single Firewire connection.

Gday everyone,

Hello guys,
I was sure I had posted this topic few days ago but I cannot find it anymore so I'll try again.
I have this idea of buying a new daw that I would use for writing only (I am going to keep using PT for recording and editing).

Hi everyone,
I was planning to buy a second DAW for my studio, the idea is to have something like a maga synth/writing station.
I think for this task I would go PC because of the many VST instruments available.

Has anyone experienced firewire operation on the DM-24? Any comments?

I just noticed that Tascam will be rolling out their new controller, ( the US2400 ) and I'd like to get a few responses from some of you who may own the FW1884 controller. I know the 1884 is a audio/midi/controller interface & the 2400 is just a controller. But as far as a controller, how well does it do with your favorate S/W? Also just how dependable is Firewire?

Hello,

I found a nice measurement result document about the new Firewire card m410 from M-Audio. This 11 pages document clearifies the features and performance of this card.

What's the feeling on this forum? Is USB 2.0 going to prevail or will the firewire 1394 ADC / DAC's be more popular.

I'd like to upgrade from my Edirol UA-1A and am thinking of some of the new USB 2.0 hi-speed converters with good quality mic preamps.

During a 9 hr. recording marathon, my PC shut itself off and rebooted itself 3 times. After the session, I was backing up the project to my fire wire drive when I heard a POP and down went the PC.

Opus, congrats sir! Sounds like you had a great wedding/honeymoon! Havn't been around here in a while. Just wanted to ask you about the rosetta 800 and the firewire option. This is the route I want to take using firewire. Is this option going to be out any time soon? I have yet to purchase the rosetta 800 but going to very soon. :p:
