I'm wondering which audio interface would be better for my needs. I'd like to record voice and acoustic guitar using two different mics and afterward doing some harmony vocals and perhaps a second guitar track and some bass. The real problem I want to avoid is major latency. Will I have substantially less with the firewire digi 002r than with the mbox. Some users have said that the latency with mbox is not a problem while others have said it is a true annoyance. Just wondering what some of you users of either audio interface have to say. Also, how many audio inputs can the digi 002r take at a time? I know the mbox can only take two, which of course is pretty limited.

Yeah - what's up with that??? It is weird that that happens in Pro Tools, with it trying to be so "Pro" and all. Is it just LE systems? It seems that even if they can't fix it to be in sync, they could at least have an automatic function that pushed everything back the said 164 samples immediately after recording is turned off. [i like how the sad face on this forum is actually an angry one] That would be a nice Preference Dialog addition, next to the "Correct the rest of Pro Tools' nagging problems" button.
It seems this has been a needless issue for a long time. I heard something about it being fixed in the PC version but not in the mac. That is SO silly if it is true. Or do most DAWs / sequencers have similar time offset issues? For instance Logic? Or Cubase? How about Digital Performer? -------------------- -Arvid •• Squish the Squid Productions, Modest Machine
