do you get the dropouts through the internal speaker as well or only through your external audio i/o?

Umm. No. Focusrite is kinda known for their preamps or something.

re: phish songs

hard to say of course heard some downright spectacular versions of mediocre songs and vice-versa. Mikes>Weekapuag is probably my quintissential Phish though, even more than YEM, Stash, Bowie or Tweezer.

saw 42 phish shows, so you know where my affinities lie.

though it's hard to beat sparking a bowl and throwing on an early 70s Dead soundboard.

Don't go Konnekt if you have a Mac...or a PC for that matter...check the threads over at Harmony Central. FWIW, I just got a new in the box Saffire (the white box with DSP 4 in/10 out) for $299 marked down from $399 starting a couple days ago at Guitar Center (was an even exchange for the Konnekt 8,...

are you running XP or Vista?

Supposedly 4.10 broke it for a lot of people, though from what I gather a lot of people have never gotten their interfaces to work - on both the PC side and the Mac side. I picked up a Konnekt 8 yesterday after the Alesis Multimix I bought also had crap drivers and get awful dropouts in Live anytime...

Konnekt 8 isn't working for me on a G5 PPC at all, nor with a lot of other PPC users. I gether the essentials of the Konnet 8 and 24D drivers are pretty much the same. Supposedly so to with the new 32s as well, and according to the Konnekt guy over at harmony central, apple just bought a bunch of th...

build your own?

it will be itunes again whenever they have native flac support. For now I'm using Cog. But it's not very feature rich. On PCs it is foobar2000, hands down.

after the expense of the mac, upgrading to a faster HD seems to not be much :) I was just saying that for a desktop the imac is actually much more similar to the mbp than to the mac pro. I have an imac g5 right now and will be picking up a mbp when Leopard comes out this fall. The imac has had a pow...

The answer, it seems, is I am SOL *sigh*

So I decided to pick up a firewire I/O today (alesis multimix12 experiment was a disaster latency wise and I think my usb fast track pro is on the fritz after many years of valient service) and I got the konnekt 8. beautiful. sturdy. doesn't work worth a damn. I get awful dropouts when the cpu gets ...

applecare for peace of mind and ease/quickness of repair -

also, you aren't really gaining power between MBP/imac -- the imac basically has laptop components in a larger shell - if you want desktop power, have to switch to Mac Pro

Bangalter is talented no doubt about it, but like many have said, Daft Punk has always been borderline pop and definitely always as commercial as possible - even musically, hell, half of Daft Punk's songs are just a ripped out 70s break, add a little compression, throw on some vocoded vocals, presto...
