Re: [microsound] audio/MIDI interfaces for OS X?

[Ben <bent@xxxxxxxxx>]

I was just reading that M-Audio announced their first Firewire product 
at NAMM. It's an audio interface with two combo XLR/1/4inch inputs, 
eight 1/4 inch outs (7.1 capable), stereo s/pdif in & out, midi in & out 
and two firewire ports. Haven't heard anything about price... quality is 
rumored to be 24bit/96kHz. I'm most intrigued by the dual firewire 
ports... hoping that means I can use it for both of my computers. Oh, it 
also can draw power off the firewire, or use an adapter.
