Hi again!
I go myself a M-Audio FW 1814 last week and it works like a dream! But the supplied FW cable is quite short, about 1 m. I´m planning to do a lot of live gig recordings and as you know, working conditions are not always ideal, so a longer FW cable would make life a lot easier. Also, I want to keep my setup as compact and portable as possible: I´d much rather have one long firewire cable and 16 short patch cables than other way around. So, is there a restriction how long cable I can use with this kind of device? I´m not talking about miles here, something around 3-5 meters should be fine. Thanks in advance, Mikael |

Thanks for the help, guys!
I´ll definitely go for high quality wire, any suggestions? What technical specs should I be looking for? What brands do you recommend? |
