I'm using the Project Mix I/O. Like the Digi003 (I think), it has 8 mic pre amps. I've not got the transport bar to work, but then I haven't tried with it much.
I'm using it as both control surface, and sound module, and I think it's great. It also has the advantage of being cheap. However, it's been running for years, and hasn't got a single problem, so I'm guessing it's built to last! :-) Have fun, On 27/01/2013, Nick Gawronski <n...@nickgawronski.com> wrote: > Hi, Not sure of the maker if you do searches for digi 003 or go to a > professional audio electronics store like the guitar center you should be > able to find out all you need to know.
