Clear DayHi, i had purchased my current computer from Dancing Dots and is the 
ADK. i assume it has a firewire card in it but not sure what its input would 
even look like as have never used one before. The Fast Track is a usb unit. 
Have certainly seen the units you are speaking of and easy enough to find even 
locally which is good.
    Have you had any experience with this Fast Track ultra and if so, is my 
experience typical or am i possibly missing something. Am really interested to 
know if I should be able to use this software and just can't read it for some 
reason or if others also find it not very user friendly. Though i like the low 
noise characteristics of the fast track Ultra, don't mind switching to another 
unit if will do the trick and still fairly low noise. 
Am sorry for several questions in one post but guess big question is about what 
a firewire input looks like so i'd know if i have one. Does it look similar to 
usb as think may know where it is on my pc. Also if any info on fast track. 
thanks in advance as you are always extremely helpful and truly appreciate it. 
Sincerely, Dave

  Like the Focusrite Saffire Pro 24, 40 etc.  Accessible with HSC sets. Mind 
you, you will require a firewire card to run those.

  Subject: [ddots-l] m-audio fast track ultra software


          

  Hello Friends, 
      Would like to get some suggestions on interfaces that have easily 
accessable software. i have the m-audio fast track ultra and have not had any 
luck being able to access its software in order to route signal paths. i know 
that if i want to record a few people at the same time on different tracks, 
there should be a way to route them on this software but do not see how it 
would be done when using jaws. If anyone has this interface and have luck using 
it, perhaps you can contact me off list so as to not bore others. i like the 
interface very much as far as being small and having very low noise but don't 
know what is required to read its software. Willing to buy a different 
interface from another company if easier to use their software or does 
everything onboard the unit. any ideas. Thanks much. Very much a novice and 
still trying to learn so could have overlooked something but don't know where 
to start. Right now can only use one input at a time cause can't read the 
software. Dave
