Good day, This is my first post so hello to all. I'm faily new at sound design but undestand a few basics. I'm starting doing sound design for a village show. ...
... <snip> You can certainly run an SFX system where you have the computer outs going directly to the amps. I do it all the time in small theatres, and other...
First rule, if it works & you have no budget, run with it. There is no reason you can't come out of your onboard laptop jack & go to an amp. As you said, not...

I suppose this is aimed towards Richard Ingraham [who I believe still uses one of these]. I have a DS2416 with an ADAT card and I cannot get it to work with an...
These are the two products I mentioned in my last post. Same basic features. I think the Radial stuff is built better. Radial Engineering JPC $200 list ...
Seems to me that you would be much better off just putting that money towards a real sound card, and then you won't need any transformers. But to each his own...
Yes the card should work just fine in Win XP. I've been using mine for several years in an XP system. To be honest I'm not sure what service packs and such...
Thanks. Will look into those. I do want to get a good interface card anyway, as I enjoy recording as well, so it would be a twofold solution with a M-audio 410...

Thanks for the prompt reply Richard. It doesn't work with any programmes and I have tried a different desk in case it was the 03D. Your mention of problem...
Yep, I remember you being on that list. Just in case you have not thought of these already... I'm assuming that you have tried hooking something up the analog...
... I would never trust USB audio interface for more that 2 channel operation. In this case you might get away with it, since for SFX you only need outputs....
Some audio device manufacturers are beginning to release a USB2.0 versions of their firewire products too. MOTU has both options for their new lines. Good...
Would rather stay away from USB for the very reasons Richard mentioned. I believed the M-Audio 410 is firewire but unbalanced outputs and the Delta 44 is an...
Laptops with firewire are much more rare than ones with USB2.0. If you have a firewire port at all it's usually just 1. Most current laptops have at least 3...
I've done this. With a Toshiba laptop with the 4 pin firewire connector. You are correct, I have to use a wall wart with the ultralite and the 4 pin, but it...
... You can not put a PCI card in a Laptop computer. Only Firewire, USB or CardBus(PCMCIA). OK well you can hook up a PCI card, but it requires something...
... I recommend going out and getting a CardBus Firewire card. I wouldn't have a PC Laptop without one. I've found the 6 pin connectors to be much more...
I've got one caveat about firewire, specifically MOTU, and PC's: I used to run a 828 and loved it until I got my new laptop, and began to experience no end of...
... Yes, this can be a problem. And to make it worse, when I was using my Presonus Firestation (which I've now just downgraded to a nice ADAT A-D-A unit, and...
Bejamin, This is one reason I just bought a Adaptec 3 port firewire PCMIA card on ebay for about $10. It's what Sweetwater Music sold for this purpose (not...
Funny, the MOTU Ultralite & Traveler are both capable of being buss powered but not by a laptop with a 4 pin firewire port. Hum....so much for the ease of...
Has anyone tried to run SFX on the new Macbook Pro using bootcamp or similar? There are a lot of programs I'd like to run and as I'm in the market for a new...
I am using an HP laptop with a MOTU Traveller. I had to get a 6-pin PCMCIA card to connect as the laptop had only the 4-pin version. Unfortunately there is...
SFX behaves well on my MacBook under both bootcamp and parallels. SMAART works under bootcamp, but not parallels - at least with any USB audio interface. I've...
The Stage Research website says that the MacIntels will run SFX. But I haven't heard of anyone that's tried it yet. Once a few more key apps are Universal,...
... Good to know- especially about Parallels. ... Why do this, when you can run it in OSX? http://my.siasoft.com/beta/smaart/ -- Jeremy Lee Sound Designer, NYC...
Hi everyone. I've been reading this group for awhile but this is the first time I've needed to post. Basically SFX has just worked for us. We've used it for 3...
I just got a MAC BOK pro and as a computer i love it. I chose not to make it my new SFX rig for a few reasons. it also comes loaded with a tonn of software...
All very good points. The MacBook's hard drive is easily changed, so I opted to upgrade it after I bought it. I put in a 7200rpm drive, and avoided Apple's...
Hi Gang: I would like to run a series of cross fades that would repeat indefinitely, until a fade of the effect was needed. This is a single file that fades...
