'nuff said. Ditch that trigger finger, the sensitivity is freaky.

M-Audio are find for keyboards + possibly controllers.
I wouldn't go near their sound cards though.
I tested a 1010 last year, had to go much further upmarket quick as it was really weak in the Bass.
They are quite cheap in a way so I suppose you get what you pay for.

I am wondering what the ableton crews think when they read those m-audio posts... They did a partnership with m-audio that maybe they could reconsider.. I mean all these eye catching bundles, 9 of 12 are m-audio...
they sure know their stuff is not the best around but they choosed the m-road, I understand the "popular" prices are a good sale argument to make things more attractive and blah blah but why bundle a product like live with crappy stuff... I really don't get it

I suspect same as me.......caipirinia was not bad, havana Club only 3 anos, 7 anos could be better, but well for free anyway so who cares, some fine ladies there and Kid Beyond rocking ...........M audio - great parties, I love you , see you at Messe 2007.

I hated my Fw 1814 for months. Really lost one or two years of future life on trying to get it to work. Then after changing the main DAW for a new one with an onboard TI chipset, it went all absolutely fine. The card works great, never disconnects, it was a nightmare with other PCs.
Agreed that hardware has to work on other hardware 90% of the times and this is not the case with FW m-audio cards.

I really wish there was a hardware forum for computers, audio devices, controllers and the lot.

great thread btw
Live and M-Audio is a match like Lyle Lovett and Julia Roberts

NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

okay.. i guess I shall have to get rid of my FW Solo then... but would you guys with the wipe-ass-hammers suggest I should invest in instead?
and while I am at it... what kind of keyboard... I amn't quite so happy with my Apple Key49'er either.
No more wiping! : ) serious suggestions please... and Live ones too
