Published on 05/14/12 at 05:22The number of Midi port (5 in and 5 out)
The power of USB (I can not stand the external power supply, more space).
Format, ie 1/2 rack. In addition I have a motu sound card so the two side by side is intégère perfectly in my small rack.
UTILIZATION
I knew better stability. Let me explain, it happens when the PC starts the card is not recognized. Just disconnect and reconnect and it works like magic. Bizarre qd same.
on the other hand when it is recognized, it has never failed.
FYI, I had to problem with my Mac mini as snow leopard, and with my hackintosh (also under snow leopard), and also under windows 7.
The updates. There?? Honestly, it's not super common in Motu ....
I never saturated the midi interface for I am a small user. She is more useful as a strip midday as real interface.
OVERALL OPINION
3 months.
I tried a small model of sports twelve o'clock at M-Audio (one of my drummer). It worked pretty well, but only one port, so no comparison with the motu.
I opted for the brand that provides drivers normally stable under MAC, and the format that fits in my rack (and also following the advice of AF). Build quality is exemplary. She seems really solid, and for those who need to move it, no worries (I left it in my rack that is part of my office)
So to summarize. I do not need a lot of Midi, and it filled to 200% its role. It fits perfectly in my rack with its small size. And food is via USB (no external power supply). It has everything I asked a midi interface (according to my needs).
I put my 8 because it is not always recognized (QLQ either OS). But for the money it sends.
