1. The power adapter is required.
2. Check your drivers. From there you can set which channels are available. M audio usually includes software to install that lets you configure your card.

Am using Ableton Live Lite 8(M Audio edition) as my software. Upon configuration on which harware inputs to make available to Live's tracks, it prompts - "The number of input channels is limited to 4 in this version of Live". Am recording drum tracks and i'll be needing atleast 6 inputs for mic ins.

Then you need to upgrade to some other version of Live if you want to use more than 4 inputs simultaneously.

You need to upgrade to the full version of Live 8. Live Intro only allows two simultaneous inputs (worse than what you have now with Live Lite).

Go here and click Upgrade to see what the price is.
