Hi there!

i was just about to buy me the m-audio audiophile usb interface when a local apple dealer told me that the compatibility between a macintosh and any interface except for emagic stuff is null!
is that true?
the real problem here is that the emagic 6/2 interface costs a hundred bucks more than the audiophile interface!

does anybody have experiences, good or bad?
how about this story,does he just want to sell emagic stuff, or is it true?

I've had good results with m-Audio midi (Midisport 2x2, Keystation 61), but terrible results with their audio (Firewire 410).

And my main worry is their weasel-like attitude. The specs for the 410 said I should be able to use it on my 500 MHz TiBook. When I started having problems with it, their tech support said: "Yeah, sorry about that - the 500 really isn't compatible. We're changing our packaging and documentation to reflect that. You're out $400? Sucks to be you."

So, I guess I can sell it and recoup some of my loss. But I won't buy M-Audio again.

But lots of audio interfaces are just fine, as long as you don't have an old TiBook. Any of the newer models seem to work okay with a lot of interfaces. Just be careful if you've got a 400/500 MHz machine.
