Stigmata Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 I need a new Midi interface.... :( (Booring stuff to buy)Just wondering:Is the MIDIMAN USB MIDISPORT 4x4 a good choice?Anyone got any experience??ThanksChristoffer
Rowan Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 HiI had a 8x8 midisport in one of the studios at work which gave us endless problems. This was about 2 years ago so things could have improved since then. If I remeber correctly It seemed to be a driver issue (we use Macs at work). We got rid of the midisport and replaced it with a unitor8 with no problems. I also use an emagic MT4 (4in 4out) with on problems.While i'm talking about midi interfaces. I've got two midi interfaces for the Atari (Midiex 2in 4out, and a soundpool one 4out) which need a good home. Any Atari users out there?Thats my two cents.Rowan

stryd_one Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 OK, lets make it real simple. Avoid USB. It's buggy.Avoid Macintosh-related vendors (EMagic, Steinberg, MOTU). They make buggy drivers for PC's.Avoid smaller vendors that don't have enough resources to support such a complex device. See above.Once you do this you'll find out that you don't really have many options... If any at all... Have fun :(

Nomical Posted August 15, 2003 Report Posted August 15, 2003 If you want to BUY great stuff, go have a look at the RME site. RME makes really excellent quality soundcards and midi interfaces and more of that stuff. I've never met anyone who had any problems with RME.
pay_c Posted August 16, 2003 Report Posted August 16, 2003 I work with the Midisport 4x4 for 1 1/2 years now and encountered not any problems. I`m running under WIN2000.I`m absolutely satisfied with that device, I never experienced any bugs...Though I heard about problems with the Midisport under WinXP.
Guest p5ych0 Posted August 23, 2003 Report Posted August 23, 2003 ??? I've got a MidiSport 2x2, under XP. Never had a single problem...
goyousalukis Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 I've used an opcode midiport 32 2in2out for 4 years now with no problems. I'm running win98.Justin Ahrens
stryd_one Posted August 26, 2003 Report Posted August 26, 2003 Just don't try and run Win2K or XP and you'll be right ;)
