I purchased an Alesis ADAT machine a couple years ago and now would like to transfer my files to my laptop either by firewire or usb. Unfortunately everything I find is over $200 as it has a bunch of inputs (1/4 and xlr) which I dont really need.

Just recently bought the M-Audio Audiophile, and i have the tape output from my Behringer mixer into the input of it and the output from it to my speakers. but whenever i record vocals or any instruments from the tape out of my Behringer mixer, i cant monitor them through the speakers, or headphone output, can anyone help me?

ARGH! I just discovered this condenser mic that connects DIRECTLY via USB...weeks after spending way too much on a firewire audio interface, microphones, etc. It looks as though this might have met my needs...for a fraction of the cost...I can't imagine that the sound is comparable...but who knows? Has anyone bought and used this thing?

My laptop has only one firewire port, for which I may want to use a firebox. Would USB provide sufficient performance for hooking up an external hard drive to record to?

Ive just brought the Alesis MultiMix 8USB Mixer for £119 from a local store anyways they said i could take it back if i wanted to but i quite like it its the first time ive had anything like it and i only brought it so i could use my Shure MS58S microphone because of its phantom power.

I'm looking for information on USB Faders or Firewire

i've tried to search the net i can only find the one by Behringer . i dont need the mixer.. i just need faders.. motorized .. to work with cubase..

if any of you guys know a good model or something that might fit the above question please let me know..

i would prefer firewire.. but usb will do..

I was trying to lay down some guitar, the tone out of my amp was great. I have tried running the guitar through a pedal straight into the M-Audio interface and also from the amp into it, both times the tone of the guitar sounds really staticky/dirty...especially on higher notes. Does anyone know why this is?

Hello Everybody!

I've been looking for hours and hours to choose an audio interface and a midi keyboard...
I think i will choose the O2 by Midiman but i need advice to choose the audio interface...
I would like to record guitar tracks without any preamp. Which one do you recommend from this site?

Ok, guys, I finally popped for a M-Audio MobilePre USB, but I'm having issues with the other sound card.

I want to record through the MobilePre, and monitor through the other sound card, and Sound Forge and Cool Edit Pro are both being grouchy.

Thanks,
Brad Venable

OK guys...it was suggested in another topic for a new Interface to look into an M-Audio Audiophile MobilePre USB for my computer.

What about the E-Mu 1820 or 1820m?
Ever since I saw one of these, I've become rather enamored of it...
