Motu 828 Firewire Driver For Macbook ProSorry for all the questions but finding a decent and well priced DAC for surround is hard and I've always used pro audio gear in the past. Is there a particular type of FireWire card recommended for this purpose? Is it easy to configure this unit to work as the normal windows sounds with multi channel audio? Will this unit work well in this capacity in windows 10? Will I be able to control windows audio with the normal windows volume control for all channels? Motu 828 Mk2 Drivers

The sheer amount of inputs and outputs which consist of twelve inputs and 10 outputs means that those unexpected situation that always arise can usually be accomodated. But considering the price of the Motu and the overwhelming features the interface its probably the best buy on the market at the time of writing this.Īll in all I would recommend this interface for semi pro producers and engineers. Sound quality is good but not on a par with apogee or Prism interfaces. Most errors I have encountered have been due to user error. However as far as I know there is no substitute availabel for Powerbook laptops.Īpart from the eobvious and deliberate omission from Motus literature regarding the non functioning daisy chainig of multiple firewire devices the interface itself has been generally error free. A texas instruments chipset is supposedly required for daisychaing firewire devices whihc is all ver well if you use a standard sized PC or Mac.
