The New PCI Express Card for MAC Quad???

Post by Eternal Dream Records »

Hi everyone, i'm new in this forum, so please sorry for my comentary and questions, i have spoke with the MOTU tech support several time and they told me that maybe for next month, the new PCI Express Card will get out, but it depends of the calls they receive, they would try to make the upgrade for those that have the PCI 424 allready with the PCI Express by sending the card and Aprox. $99.00 Dollars on change for the new one, obviosly for those that have change and buy a MAC G5 Quad, like i did. Now i'm waiting for that because i allready use to have a G5 Dual 1.8 and i sell it for the new one, that it's my bad, i need to wait now.... (this is just a coment of heard of my call) i think we need to keep traking them for this, if not we will be waiting a lot...

Second, did someone now wish could be the best hardware interface with sampling rates over 96 with light pipe with the best converters ?

I Dont know maybe Apogee??

I use a 2408mk3 at 96, but only have 12 at 96 and i need 32 channels at 96 or better.

I also have 828, but the same, because of the technology, only 4 channels at 96 via light pipe... :x :x

I know that the 192 it's up to 196Khz, but i'm worry about the Light pipe converters, the MOTU tech guy told me that it's basicly the same converters used on all models, 828mk2, 2408mk3 , etc....

PLEASE HELP!!!!
