I just ordered my new G5, so sweet....and I want to buy the Event Electronics EZbus, if anyone has any serious beef with this piece of equipment please let me know. I want to record using the ADAT lightpipe I/O, and all of this is really not that important so what I really want to know is, what's the most affordable way to get lightpipe into my new G5? I mean specifically what is a good soundcard with lightpipe I/O or firewire interface or magic spell, etc... Any pertinent/related info will help. I guess I can live without the control surface features of the EZbus if anyone has any good mixer/lightpipe interface setups in mind. Thanks everyone!

Hi choirvandal,

Firstly, please when you post a question only do so in one category (not 4). As this is a question mainly about audio interfaces this forum (Audio, MIDI, DSP cards and interfaces) would be the correct one.

Now in regards to your question.
I have a G5 on order too. Not sure if there will be any compatibility issues with the new G5's with any existing audio hardware such as PCI-X slots etc....I'm assuming there won't be though you may want to wait until some reports from users/manufacturers before buying.
If you only need ADAT lightpipe inputs why not go for a card such as RME hdsp9632
http://www.rme-audio.de/english/hdsp/hdsp9632.htm

I use RME hardware and am very happy with it.

What software do you intend to use with your G5? Logic, Cubase, Performer etc.....
You may want to look at a dedicated control surface (e.g. Logic Control or Mackie Control) instead of the EZbus.
