I second the Radial boxes!! If you go to radialeng.com you can see what they offer, from passive to active to stereo solutions.
Price range varies, but overall these are some of my favorite DI's. They're built like a tank, too.

Just an FYI, the P series do not all have the same action. In fact, the P70 exhibits lighter action than its successor, the P60. I believe this is a result of cost-cutting at Yamaha, considering the new P70 is $150 cheaper than the P60 was. Having said that, I agree. The P70 is a terrific value. But...

Have you checked out the CME stuff? Their website is cme-pro.com. I've been looking at the 88 key myself. They're distributed by Yamaha in the US, so you should be able to get these pretty much anywhere... online or a local music retailer.

All I can say is I empathize with you. I have an iMac that I'm running DP 5.1 on and I am also getting intermittent crashes. And this is without using very many CPU-intensive plug-ins. In fact, CPU is at about 40% with multiple audio tracks and a couple of VI's. But without warning (no CPU peaks, no...

I can empathize. I myself, a slave to the price factor, just purchased the very same machine you speak of. (RAM maxed of course) A problem I've been having is with MOTU Symphonic Instrument. It was released as a universal binary in July, but so far, does not work with DP. They are apparently working...

If I may chime in here... I'm new here, but I've been on other forums. It's a pleasant surprise to witness the volume of useful replies and relevant information compared to other forums. Granted, the subject matter is obviously limited to MOTU related topics, but I just thought I'd share that I've b...

As I understand from posts in this forum, the MAS plugin part of MSI is NOT UB yet (cannot beleive this is true!). Motu promised to release the next MSI update 'really soon' to correct this. Looks like MAS is giving way to AU. Might as well. DP's the only app using it. I'd assume their internal AU-...

Lots of people are having issues with MSI-UB for some reason. Dunno why-- and it doesn't look so great when MOTU's own plugins don't work in it's own DAW host. Of course, Mach5 seems to have been all but orphaned throughout this entire transition so far. I just got off the phone with MOTU. Upon con...

I trashed the System Prefs file and restarted, but still no dice. MSI doesn't even show up as an instrument you can use in DP. I'll give this another go tomorrow... Yeah, it sure does look bad for MOTU. It doesn't make a lick of sense for the newest update of DP to not fully support its newly update...

By "not ready for UB" I assume you mean the newest update to DP, as the version of MSI I have is the UB update. Please clarify if I'm reading you incorrectly. Also, it doesn't seem to me that it makes very much sense to release a universal binary for DP that won't play nicely with the univ...

MSI UB and DP 5.1 problems?

Hi, I'm obviously new here... My question is: Anyone having any problems with DP 5.1 not recognizing Symphonic Instrument...?? I'm running an iMac Intel Core Duo 1.83Ghz with 1.5GB RAM. DP 5.0.1 was slow on this machine. The 5.1 update is markedly faster. But it no longer recognizes MSI as an option...
