M-Audio Fast Track C600 - new interface
 

This popped up about a month ago, and now there's detailed info on this UK retailer site. It's a budget priced interface, but the design and features are very interesting. I don't know why it's not mentioned yet on the M-Audio site. It could be a good harbinger at how interesting a new 004 might be:

There's also the C400, which is slightly smaller and less channels.

It seems these are meant for PT MP9 as well, since Sweetwater is listing a C400 + MP9 bundle for $400. Wow! Might be time to retire my problematic Mbox 2.

These are like the worst-kept secret ever. Sweetwater's listing for the C400 ($250) and the C400+MP9 bundle ($400) are both gone. Just release them already so I can replace my Mbox 2!

Very interesting on several levels. Personally I'd love to see an 8x8 Analog/ADAT In - 8x8 Analog/ADAT OUT / MIDI / Clock / 2 Headphones / Internal DSP / on Firewire for under $600.

I love my Saffire Pro / Presonus / and other 1U interfaces that are doing everything except for the onboard dsp cue send - that would be nice in some situations.

I don't know about $600 but the Motu 828mk3 and TC Studio Konnekt 48 aren't a million miles away.

I finally gave up waiting for M-Audio to release these things so I went with a FT Pro + MP9 bundle to replace my Mbox 2. I was hoping for a shiny new C400 bundle. I am flat-out amazed how much quieter the mic pres are than the Mbox 2. I was hoping for "comparable" but I came out with "superior". I'm sure the new 3rd gen Mboxes sound even better, but money's short and times are hard. :p

Oh, sure, NOW they're out...once I finally gave up and replaced my dying box. Thanks guys. :p

Can the C400 work with the Avid Artist Control and Artist Mix?
