Then make sure it works from the key on the home or work system before taking the key and interface to a friendy laptop dealer and testing that it all works together on a damanding project.ДЄs my friend owns the computer shop I will be testing the phantom power on a cardbus too just to see if it works but I think that will be too much to ask for. Anyone able to suggest a suitable torture test project? Of course if you just want to record and not use it in a live situation then it may be pretty easy to get an interface and just test it with laptops until you find one that works seamlessly.ДЄnyway my point was meant to be to use a simple solution and test the interface if possible first then load reaper on a USB key with a torture test project. Not sure how Art got his mains power to work as the adapter seems to go up to 230v and we have 240v mains in Australia.ДЇrom what I gather both MOTU and RME stuff has very low latency but others are possible too. I will get an external battery pack later for outdoor recording and recording in the bush away from mains power. Trying to run 48v phantom power from a laptop battery would be very problematic anyway. That is ok as the six pins are for power and (I think the nine pins too). I will try it on his cheap but interesting duo core chinese laptops but these only have 4 pin firewire. My solution was to get the Traveler and take to to my friend's computer shop in Prahran. I have Nicholas to thank for putting me onto Paul Allen at Sweetwater who listened (well read) very carefully about my concerns regarding the Firestudio in re both latency and hardware compatability. Still waiting for it to come but the guy at Sweetwater was fantastic with it. I have decided to get the interface first.

I would even consider selling my AMD desktop machine for a few hundred pounds, because the mac-mini could easily replace it:Д«est thing being, I'll be able to run windows and OSX. This gives me a total of: ВЈ799 to work with. I'll get a refund for the Alesis, and a refund for the firewire express card. in fact, its almost a certainty.Дell said its fine to get a refund for the laptop. So I'm definitely going to consider the apple mac-mini route. our guitarist has a friend who works at an Apple store. I'd want 8 analog inputs, each with a trim/gain control. Basically I could afford ВЈ300 for an interface if I got the Mac-mini. ВЈ?.Д«ut then I'm stuck on what interface to get. Buy tft monitor that is still light and portable. Return and get refund for Alesis soundcard. One idea lurking around in my head is to:ДЎ.
