5Awesome well-made Firewire Interface!  Feb 09, 2008
Amazingly simple and well put together product. Im using this on a Intel Mac and it is the best ive seen. i did not need to install anything. Its basically plug and play if you know what you are doing. I put this off forever, and now Im so glad i got this. I should have bought it 2 years ago. Does exactly what it says it will do and the firewire connection means zero latency. The price is very fair considering what other choices are out there. I really like M-Audio as a company. I own a LOT of their equipment and it holds up really well. Their gear is tough and made to perform. Buy it and enjoy! :))

5Great value.  Jan 04, 2008
I'm very impressed. A lot of features and flexibility packed into a small and inexpensive package.

I installed it on a WinXP(SP2) machine which had Adobe Audition on it, and the M-Audio drivers and software were fully integrated into Audition automatically. Very slick. Made some nice home-studio recordings within an hour of opening the box.

The only startup difficulty was in realizing that there were way more options than I expected for to routing inputs to outputs, so picking the right combination of software settings to simply make a recording from one mono mic seemed a bit more complicated that it needs to be. Took me a whole extra 10 minutes of reading the included PDF-format manual :).

2I guess this is a great item if you still have a PowerPC Mac.  Dec 23, 2007
Unfortunately, I have an Intel Mac. I researched this item extensively prior to purchase and nowhere does it tell you that it has trouble with Intel Macs. The only driver on the M-Audio site is from early 2006 and does not support Tiger 10.4.11 which is what I am running. I installed the CD-ROM that came in the box, but the unit would not show as being hooked up to my Mac and I could not use any of my Pro Audio programs with it. I couldn't even open the M-Audio control panel on my computer. I then went and installed the most recent Intel driver from the M-Audio site and it got a me a little further; I could now open the control panel so that it could tell me that the device isn't plugged in. All of the lights are on on the device but it is not hooking up right to my computer somehow. Me thinks this is an Intel issue.

Of course now when I go to research this issue I find all the Intel problem reports that I didn't see somehow before I bought this item. Bottom line, this is an outdated item (it is a few years old and has not been updated) and it has outdated software support. I'm not sure if just the latter is the only problem or if the two issues work in concert with each other. I wish I still had my G5 so I could try this thing out and confirm that it really is an Intel issue, but I don't. I just have my 2.2GHz Santa Rosa MacBook Pro.

I am returning this to Amazon and now I will have to start looking for a mobile audio solution again. I knew this thing was too good to be true when I saw the price, and I should have gone with my gut.

2Watch out for Macintosh Drivers  Dec 10, 2007
Each day I have to reboot my machine because the audio outputs either stop working or start to pick up a lot of noise/static. Searching around the internet seems to indicate M-Audio drivers for OS X are not to be held in high regard.


If you havea Mac, I would think twice about buying M-Audio audio interfaces. (For the record, I have OS X 10.4.11).
