EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Firewire is a different matter altogether. This device (theoretically) has
many advantages, and I've heard a lot about it (so far so good). Keep tabs
on this product. I am not saying that the brand MOTU 2408 sucks by any
means. I just don't suggest it over other solutions. I'm sure the 2408 is as
good as my VXPocket. Watch the reviews of the Firewire device for a solid
response, but definitely don't generalize MOTU on a criticism of one device
for ASIO. I may still test out the MOTU Firewire device before springing for
the Hammerfall-laptop solution. -Jer
