ProFire 2626 or Fast Track Ultra 8R
Hi!
I´m going to get a new interface. I will need at least 10 Inputs (for drum recording). So i have two options -> ProFire 2626 or Fast Track Ultra 8R Which of them is "better" to use? I will record on an external FW HD. Is there a FW bus overload issue, if i use the Profire and the FW HD daisy chained? Does anybody know if the Fast Track Ultra 8R allows 10 inputs (8 analog + 2 S/PDIF)? I can´t find any information about that on the M-Audio site... Are there any issues with USB audio interfaces in comparision to FW ones? Thanks in advance!

Re: ProFire 2626 or Fast Track Ultra 8R
Hi Clausiii, the Fast Track Ultra 8R is an 8x10 interface. The first 6 inputs are the analog Mic/Line and the last two (7 & 8) are switched in the control panel between the analog Mic/Line and S/PDIF inputs.

Re: ProFire 2626 or Fast Track Ultra 8R
By going down the firewire route you will have the ability to expand later on because of the ADAT ports giving you another 8 channels of i/o.
Cheers
