it is not compatible with the chipset of my computer. It takes the dust in a corner in my studio. I'm from Montreal.

Lemme guess: Tech support from Motu told you:"pffffff... I dunno... buy a 2408mk3 or a 24 I/O instead, but we won't take back the 2408 mkII"
I'm feeling je me souviens plus right now..

The card is no longer suport. Generally all companies say the same thing in this situation. 3/4 of my gear are no longer suport. :)

no, I use Cubase since Cubase VST32! I use PT too but I don't realy like it. It's good for record a rock band. Not to create a techno song. Except since the v8. MOTU is a very good brand but built initialy for Mac and not especially for pc. But my MOTU MIDI timepiece 8x8 work very well with my pc :)

If I get your 2408 and I also have chipset issues, would you take it back?

Oops my bad: Thought it was a 24 analog IO.

I withdraw my pitch

RTFM. Motu firewire cards are only compatable with a Texas Instruments or Lucent Technologies 1394 chipsets. Your built-in pc firewire interface is VERY unlikely to be up to spec. I use a Lacie PCI-firewire card, cost less than 30 bucks and works sweet. Im constantly running all 8 TRS outs at 24bit and havent had many issues at all... Im looking into getting the microclock mk2 and 2408 mod from [ www.blacklionaudio.com ] - beats paying 3k for an apogee;)

You're on Cubase now? Sweet! I thought you were on FL for some reason.

M-Audio says the same thing about all their cards. That's because TI FW chipsets are by far the best.

If I had a studio desktop (not a Macbook Pro) I'd get this MOTU card. It's pretty sick.

If I remember, the 2408 mkII is a PCI interface with a break-out box so it would most likely be a motherboard issue. Anyways... good luck to y'all when it comes down to dealing with MOTU's support even if your product is still supported.

The PCI-324 is motu's pci-firewire interface and it's not a prerequisite for using the 2408. Ive read numerous reports of it bugging out on Asus motherboards. I dont see what's stopping the op from buying a 3rd party PCI card and just running the firewire cable directly

Subtone, RTF1P (read the fucking 1st post). The 2408mk2 come with a pci-324. MOTU suggère d'utiliser un chipset ASUS (ou Asrock qui la marque "bas de gamme" de ASUS) avec un pc. You can use another cheap card than the pci-324. But you will lost the DSP power (and the mixer and internal routing and effect, etc...) from the pci-324 and the ASIO driver! What Asio driver do you use after ? asio4all ?!! ...

DainJa, don't speak about this dummy company in my threat please lol

SourUltraFast, You're right ;)

BTW, it is sold.
