vermeee > 6 pin firwire is with power supply, 4 pin without - you will need external power supply for your interface when using this ... you need a cable - one side smaller 4 pin, other one standard ... there are many, just pick some high quality one ..
no way to be less efficient for the card

hi guys....
I`m about to upgrade my little homestudio a bit, and am searching for a recording possibillity for multiple synths into the computer....
what I need (want  ) most is a digital mixer, Audio/MIDI interface (and perhaps DAW controller) in one. The only problem is, that most of such gear has too much Mic-Ins and too less Line/Instrument-Ins. Untill now my favorite is Edirols M-16 DX.
But does someone have another/better recommendation i didnt see yet?
I´d too really like one for the firewire port, to have more USB Ports left, but USB would still be okay....
greetz, dave

yeah man.... these ones I saw too 
but don`t like them
i know, that i could connect my synths to the mic inputs, but i do more like one stereo pair, than two seperate mono channels. I discovered one piece of gear, with two mono mic in (one of them with E-guitar support) and 8 (or so) stereo line ins, but don`t remember the name..... would be cool if anyone does.

I have the RME 800 and it rocks, if a tad complicated at first.

Hello! anyone using the TC Konnekt 8 succesfully with a Laptop PC with the small e-link firewire IEEE 1394 Texas Instruments port/chip???
if so, can u tell me which OS are u using? which service pack? any hotfixes?? Drivers??
i have a hp pavilion laptop and ive had really bad experiences with firewire interfaces, from m-audio audiophile fw to MOTU 828 MkII , but i really want the konnekt 8 for my laptop setup.
international mail order is the only option. |

I'm more or less leaning towards a motu ultralite...looks pretty decent for its price, but I dont really know about the compability with intel macs...any experiences there?
rme fireface 400 looks also nice, but one thing bugs me there...it says 2x midi I/O, but I can just see one midi connector on it 
dont know anyway if its really 300€ more worth than the motu...
any help would be really apprecated
