I am looking to get a new system for audio recording. I am leaining towards the Motu 828, but I know the DIGI 001 is a hot seller. Will I sacrifice quaility by going with the Motu 828. Are the Preamps as good? And sound quality?
Mainly, we want to use it to create our first CD. So we'll be recording vocals, instruments etc. Will one lend itself to this application better than the other? What about quality? What about OS X support? What about for a newbie to learn, is the documenation on the MOTU 828 good enough that anyone could learn it easily, even a newbie, or do I need a book? Do they have books? I will also use it to sweeten some video work from Final Cut Pro. I here the Motu Digital Performer is great for this, especially since I could mix Surround sound with it. Any thoughts here. I basically like the MOTU better, but don't want to get something that will lessen the quality of the CD. |

oh yeah,
this thread started out as motu 828 vs. digi 001! dodgy oh, oh who? breath in slooowly...breath oouutt... sorry, i've calmed down now, but what a piece of CARP! 1. i've heard better mic pre's on a seck desk. 2. why do they have to have a party that i'm not invited to, in my system folder??? 3. why do their decidedly average plugins cost the kind of money that would buy a car that would throw in a free bl*wj@b? 4. why do they insist that the word "compatibility" dosen't exist? 5. why direct io? 6. why tdm/rtas? 7. why oms? 8. etc etc... 9. ditto 10. just "why" i'm being aggresive here, but for good reason. we're not here to advertise "products", we're here to "critique" them! -------------------- one for all and all for one...
