I too have had a 1212m for around 4 years, and I have to say it is every bit as awesome as Ivan described - I have my outputs hooked up to a pair of Adam A7s - balanced outputs for great hum rejection. On the input side I have a Twintrak Pro which includes Mic preamps etc. I also have expanded to 10 ins and outs using a Behringher Ultragain that I hooked up to the ADTA ports to give me the extra 8 ins and outs.
As Ivan says, it is cheap because it starts with nothing, but you can make it the heart of an extremely competent system! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

That's the one. Andrew's choice of gear was something that led me to 1212m in the first place. The Ultragain is a great way to expand the 1212m via optics and with very reasonable price. Other good solution could be SM Pro Audio AB-8, or possibly SM Pro Audio A08+SM Pro Audio PR8E combo. Both choices are ~300$, second being a bit cheaper.

I had no idea I could do that.
All along I figured a $400 firepod was my only option for being able to record more than 2 tracks at once. This is truly AWESOME! Andrew, enlighten us a bit more on using these 2 things together. What works well? Not so well? Roadblocks? Trouble spots? Or has it all been smooth sailing? I would use this for capturing a live band. Either mics or direct feeds from modelers would be my sources. Into Sonar 7. Is the PCI interface solid for this???? -------------------- My Gear

QUOTE (jer @ Apr 3 2009, 12:38 AM) superior to firewire? I can't say really, this depends of the other components in the system, but I never red/experienced any problems with both firewire or PCI interfaces. I cannot compare them as well, cause I never heard about one interface being made in both firewire and PCI versions, so we can check statistics. In general - I think they are both good for connecting the audio system to PC mainboard. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

QUOTE (jer @ Apr 2 2009, 03:08 PM) *runs off to look up Behringer Ultragain* This? http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/produ...rter?sku=182483 I use the line 6 stuff since I am still having a hard enough time with just the guitar. But I do like to read about and check out the links you guys post. Every time someone posts a link to musciansfriend.com that goes directly to a product, I am blocked from viewing it. I can go to the URL musciansfriend.com, but even then I am unable to browse to the different online store departments. Is that common? What is the deal with that? I always have to copy the item number in the link here and go check it out at guitarcenter.com. -------------------- Had a guitar hanging, just about waist high, and we are going to play these things until the day we die. |

You mean the link that you posted doesn't work? It works fine with me, I don't know what could be the problem mate.
BTW, I usually check out gear using this method: - mark the name of the model and press google search button on my logitech mouse if you don't have this option, you can do the following: - mark the name of the model, hold ctrl and press in the following order: c, t, e, v. release ctrl and press enter in the end. this will open new tab with google results. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
