HI there : I was originally caught out too : ebay.co.uk will only ever show you stuff listed in the UK. So you can see the keyboards because they are ebay.com. To see them, repeat the same setup on ebay.com ! SOme one else might know a better work around ! Cheers, Arron --- In Fa

Mad! I search on a daily basis on eBay for anything Fairlight related as well as other stuff, but I still can't find this item if I use my advanced search string (SEE PIC). Surely this should pick it up? Can anyone see if I'm missing anything out? It'd be a shame to realise I've

Thanks to everyone who helped. I'm leaning towards the 1010 as no-one else I know has encountered the same noise problems. The noise problems that my friend encountered wasn't typical soundcard noise but more computer sounding, as though it were picking up Hard Drive noise or som

Hi Peter Before I bought my digital mixer, I tried Edirol UA1000 (8 IN/OUT 24 bit and up to 96 Khz Samplingrate). They have made a new firewire-model with 192 KHz sampling-rate to about half the price (in Denmark ). It should be great and affordable. Try it out. Sincerely Klaus -

Hi Peter, I have two Delta 1010's (1 1010, 1 1010-LT) I've never encountered any noise issues, but actually they have worked flawlessly for me. I have them in 2 PC's running XP Pro. I've also installed the Delta Audiophile 24/96 in friend's PC's and they are a good card too (same

Can anyone recommend a decent sound card for my PC running Win XP (Pro). I have been looking at the M-Audio 410 (Fire Wire) or Delta 1010 (but believe the 1010s are VERY noisy). Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated, as usual :-) Cheers, Peter

Hi Daniel, To me, your CMI has been modified to use an external 8" Floppy drive... Hope it helps. Laurent.
