True to his sign, Mr. October falls from the fence and buys the Event EZbus interface to fool with.

Might be the right decision or not but at least I've got something to play with and there are a number of projects that are screaming out for this device.

I've been fooling with Steinberg Cubase since the holiday break and this will give me some controls to save me from fooling with the damn mouse all the time! I grew to hate that very quickly

Those are incredibly versatile and were very much ahead of their time when first released. I sold a ton of them back when I was doing MIDI/DAW consulting. Congrats!

ive been thinking about getting a firepod. ive heard nothing but good things about them, and the amount of inputs/outputs is unreal for that pricerange.

Compared to what I was looking at buying this offered far more in terms of being both simple (like me) when I need it to be just me, a mic or two and my amp or a several fools in a bunch.

$325 I thought was a good price and I'd have spent that much on something far more limiting that was of any quality.
Speaking snobishly...

... I think...

"I need more ... input."

Is there a site where I can puruse gobs of technical literature?

On this thing?
Try this place Event Electronics
Which will provide slightly different information that http://www.event.com or so I found

You gotta love a new toy! How's the quality? Nice and clean? I'd love to hear a song that you recorded through it.
