I just donated my Layla 24/96 interface to Good Will

I really liked that Layla, it worked flawlessly for many-many years. Several years back the DAW with the PCI slots gave up it's ghost. And I have been contemplating getting an external PCI slot rig to use it.

I do have a newer USB Presonus interlace that I am using on my half baked windows 10 DAW which works fairly well, so off to Good Will the Layla went. Boo hoo hoo.....

I see all sorts of obsolete digital recording gear at the thrift stores, you are not alone.

I forget what it was but I recently saw something that looked interesting but it was Firewire 400, pretty 2006-ish.

 

FWIW, Waveform Free is a really nice and easy to use DAW that is 100% free. Go to www.tracktion.com, click on the products tab at the top, scroll down to the free products tab and grab a copy. Even if you dislike it you can just delete it. They'll get your email but they don't send much, just sales about 4-6 times a year.

@Kuru. I am using Sonar Producer 8.5.3. I still have the DVD's to load that on any Windows computer (I like using this old recording app because I have literally 50 mixes that I did on Sonar that will only open in Sonar). I can also use the Studio One recording app from PreSonus. I have the Studio 68 USB Audio Interface as my new go to interface. It works well with Sonar.

Sounds like you are up and running DBM, that's all anybody needs.
