Ok i'm not new to recording but this is about to make me bust my MOTU into pieces.

System

Compaq EVO610
1GB Ram
Pentium IV
Sybia Firewire Card
Nuendo 3
MOTU 8PRE
Alesis ADAT

I built a PC-based DAW out of a MOTU PCI 424 card and pair of MOTU 24IO interfaces to be used as a way to generate a large number of simulated Sonar signals. SONAR (no pun intended) is the DAW application.

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 work with (MOTU 828 mk 2 sound card),i read about MOTU HD 192..is this realy sound like analog?i mean in the past i was working with ADAT,when i listen to my old recrd i fell big gap between this old sound and the sound of 828 !ok the sound of 828 is clear and clean BUT : cold !dont have this deep hedroom as the ADAT. so if someone have hd192 answer me if this realy soundes better?

hey, I recently have been looking to upgrade my converter. i currently have a MOTU 2408mk3. talking to the great guys at sweet water they have suggested 3 cards to me. the Apogee rosetta 800, the Mackie Onyx 1200f, and the MOTU 192hd. all are within my budget but i dont know the best to go for. I mostly Record Metal, and rap(bleh). i have a PreSonus digimax96k preamp and Great River 1nv.

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've been using an akai dps24 for a couple years and everything is selfcontained.

I don't know what what system to go with, i want something with easy monitor sending and sounds good. i'd like to have 8 mic preamps built in with 8 or so more balanced inputs for more preamps. i've been lookin at MOTU and they seem to have (on paper) great monitor sends/mixing capability and

hello,

I'm running Cubase sx 3 through a souped up sinlgle processor g5 and a MOTU 896, i wanted to buy a nice tube mic preamp, but wasnt sure how to bypass the preamp on the 896 to get it into the computer through the firewire.

Any help?

thanks,

Hey guys, I've looked around and I can't seem to find anything quite like this, so I figuered I'd ask and see if anyone has had this happen to them before. I've got a little Dell Desktop running XP media Edition, plenty of RAM, I think a 2.8g processor, with an original MOTU 896, NOT the 896 HD.

Hello!
I have an problem about AES/EBU samplerate between MOTU 896HD and DAT.
When I connect 896HD AES/EBU output to DAT input then change the samplerate by 896HD setup software on my DAW.
Whenever I changed the samplerate from 32k,44.1k to 48k.
The DAT samplerate still stay at 44.1k.
After that I try another DAT but the situation as same before.
