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. |
