Reviews for Mark of the Unicorn (MOTU) 828MKII 24/96 Audio Interface (Macintosh and Windows) Feature: I really like the guitar/instrument/mic preamped inputs with trip pots in the front. Very convenient. MIDI I/O & another 8 line-level inputs in back, S/PDIF, ADAT, etc. And it's Firewire, which means latency is not an issue on my Dual 1.8GHz G5, even with many tracks recording at once. Comes with MOTU AudioDesk (Mac only); which, from my experience, is kind of a piece of sh*t. It has no MIDI; no VST, AU, or any other plugin capabilities; poor included effects; and a very ugly and counterintuitive interface. Oh well, it's free. I didn't let this detract from the features score, as I was buying an interface, not a sequencer. However, M-Audio's interfaces come with stripped-down versions of Live and Reason--both great programs. But so it goes, I wanted the 828mkii, and Logic Pro 7 is on its way. Quality: Everything seems top quality. I haven't had any problems yet. Value: More expensive than Firewire interfaces from M-Audio, but more generous in features as well. Of course, I would have liked to pay less, but I picked it over cheaper interfaces anyway. Desirability: Well, I bought it. Sound: Preamps are great. Otherwise, standard sound capabilites--24-bit 96kHz. Support: Haven't had to use it yet, which is worth a 10 to me. Overall: I'm very satisfied. Firewire leaves room to grow, and if need be, it can be used in conjunction with other 828mkiis or MOTU's other interfaces.
