Re: High quality soundcard with accessible configuration software.
I just found another audio interface that may be what some of us are looking for. It is the Cakewalk V-Studio 100. The description sounds a lot like the Edirol FA-66 but with inputs and outputs plus hardware mixer with motorised faders and daw controls on the top. It even has some built in hardware effects and can be used stand alone or with your computer. You can read a nice review at: http://createdigitalmusic.com/2009/08/20/cakewalk-v-studio-100-hands-on-mixer-interface-control-surface-macpc/ I ope to get my hands on one soon to see if it is blind friendly.

Re: High quality soundcard with accessible configuration software.
Well, Robert, below, points us to other external solutions for mixing and getting around inaccessible control panel software. I just wonder how many folk here have used control surfaces and external mixer combinations successfully with stereo or multi-track recording software - and these certainly start to come into their own when doing multi-track work. One example I like the look of is the Tascam FW-1082 which seems very attractive. One site describing it is: http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/product/4974-tascam-fw-1082.html this is a Firewire device, but many computers do have Firewire sockets. Mention is made of touch Sensitive controls though, so how practical are these? there are a lot of these control surface and combined mixers around and I'd like to hear from anyone using one with Sonar, Sony Sound forge 9, etc. We are talking real money outlay here though.

Jim. Are you looking for an audio interface that can track several channels at once? If so the Edirol FA-66 is a nice audio device. The software is only used for setting buffers and latency. Everything else is done on the box with real hardware controls and not one menu. My only issue with the fa-66 is that it is firewire 400 and I don't know how low the latency can go. My experience is with a friend's system. It sure does sound nice for playback. I don't know how good the mic pre-amps are. You get 4 analog inputs and 2 digital channels totalling six simultaneous tracks. Price is about$400 CDN.

Re: High quality soundcard with accessible configuration software.
Judy. FA-66 has two combo xlr quarter in instrument/microphone inputs on the front. They each have their own sensitivity knob so you can dial down for line inputs as well. There is also a quarter inch headphone jack on front. There are quarter inch jhacks onback. There are also rca jacks but don't remember what for. Don't know what kind of digital connections it uses. - Original Message - From: Judy W ju...@austin.rr.com To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Tuesday, September 01, 2009 1:39 PM Subject: RE: High quality soundcard with accessible configuration software.

RE: High quality soundcard with accessible configuration software.
Hi Ray, no the Edirol card does nothing like that. But it wasn't a requirement for me as I use a hardware mixer for those tasks. So if that's what you need, the Edirol card won't do.

RE: High quality soundcard with accessible configuration software.
Hi I tried to order one of these cards, and got the following: The Edirol UA1EX has actually been discontinued and is now replaced with the Edirol UA1G. I have the Just a follow up to the previous email regarding your order. The Edirol UA1EX has actually been UA1G and it works extremely well. So which ever card you get, both will serve the purpose.
