Re: still on the interface quest...

i have just recently bought the tc konnekt.
nice dsp reverb, a little channelstrip and really great sound.
adat spdif all inside.
looks cool. works fine with windows servicepack two AND an automatic 
update 
for the firewire connection.
good tech hotline, friendly german guy taking care of driver issues etc.

the only teardrop: laptop firewire has insufficient power to run the 
konnekt.
so you have to carry the outboard power cable/case when on the road.

smooth looping everybody - tilmann
