WTF?!?!?!?!!? :mad: the midi form the usb is working great , also the midi output form the card , sometimes also the midi input form the card goin bad and just not working... it only happens on the cubase, any other simpler software dont have any problems... im waiting for response form maudio , just wrote them email... and i think lots of people have problems like this.. i hope not , but probbly someone ha? | ||

9 posts | 4 Posted on 04/21/2008 at 20:25 Ok after writing a pretty optimistic reply i was looking again at the all site and decided to add a little more words. i have the m-audio and a laptop and i bought both for a small price i could pay at the time , and they both work great but i know i need to upgrade both nevermind the laptop , the m-audio unit is very easy but not very pro. i had tons of problems actually. the first problem in the first topic was the biggest , the firewire needed to be upgraded to 6 pin cable with an extrnal express card. the drivers are too simple and not working with other host program running. the unit itself can be much smaller i think , i mean i want. and more solid. i dont get an optimal low latency that i want , mostly most run on a 10-15 ms. unless i really optimize the project for live perf. and im not shure about the optimal quality of the jacks for recording , convertors and output signals... but eventually , im REALLY happy with it since it does have 2 ins and 4 outs and it does play what i type in the keys  . eventually i will upgrade , or probbly add another more solid unit. | ||

9 posts | 6 Posted on 04/23/2008 at 00:47 Yes there is an midi in out , and is well used. the unit needs an external power supply under my laptop but if used with a laptop that has a built in 6 pin firewire then it suppose to use laptop power , but i don have so didnt test it. on a pc desktop with pci firewire it does not get power , and need extrnal supply. witch is a minor for me but not a big issue since cable is very flexible and light power unit. i bought it for 400 euro about a year and a half ago , dont know the price now the unit i s very nice but it had alot of problems and i know other friends that had the same issues with it sometimes u need to restart , the drivers kinda buggy and not loading when need to set an out/in in the driver mixer , firewire issues , not the best convertors / inputs... for me i solved all the problems i hope and now when playing is pure fun 4 outs and 1 in with midi in out. | ||

9 posts | 8 Posted on 04/23/2008 at 11:38 Yea ther are 2 mic ins and 2 mono/1 stereo line in and u can choose between mic/line i mostly use the line in with a synth in stereo so i counted them as 1 st. in. the mic is for guitar/mic/ anlso for line of low level insts. |
