Hi all,

I was looking for a USB audio interface for home recording. What do you use?

AVID launched a C- series of USB audio interfces, the C400 and C600 (http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/F ... kC400.html). It includes ProTools SE 9. Anyone has experience with them?

Hello DrNeurus,
I use the MOTU UltraLite MK3
It didn't come with a recording software suite, I just use GB on Mac and Audacity on PC.
Not that this is entirely relevant, but I had originally purchased the Avid M-Box-Pro but had so many unresolved issues with it as to render it unusable.
Fortunately, I was able to return it to GC.

Hopefully another member will come along and give some more relevant input.
Cheers, Hanon

I use a Zoom R-16 and have been very happy with it. It allows you to use it as a stand-alone recorder or as as an interface to your software - Very flexible. My advice before considering this device is to drop-in on their forum at http://zoomforum.us/viewforum.php?f=17 . They are very helpful over there

Cheers!

I have two Motu Ultralite Mk3s! One at my home studio - for band rehearsal setup, my keyboard mixer and for recording purposes - and other as my personal monitor mixer on stage. I have no complaints. Before I purchased my second Ultralite I tried to find alternatives. After quite a long search, I went to buy it again. IMO it's so versatile in its very compact size and reasonable prize. With my mac setup, I remember only one problem with it: USB isn't as liable as its FW. It's not a big deal for myself, I only use it with FW.

If I am right, MOTU is one of the oldest sound card manufacturer for Mac. And it's still very much Mac oriented brand. So I am not sure, how well does it perform in PC platform...? Any experiences about that?

Hello,

I have a M-audio Fast Track Pro and I use Cubase to record. It is working fine so far. Sometimes I have some troubles to export the project in audio files, but I assume it is due to my computer limitations.

Hello,

I have a MOTU Microbook.
It's all software based, small & powerfull.
I plug a mic, a guitar and the Nord into it.
It works fine under Windows 7 ans osX.
I consider the buffer/latency to be ok for a USB sound card ( 2 x 4 ms ).
The SPDIF coaxial output works fine too.
