All in all this is a hellish little device. When it's working, it does a great deal very well - I'm very happy with the sound quality, and wide combinations of inputs and outputs. It's been useful for surround mixing, midi, vocal and instrument recording, DAC converting from SDPIF to analogue and more.The problem is that it's a technological prima donna and wants to be cajoled, begged, wined and dined before it will work. And the next day it will change its mind you have to start all over. It's anybody's guess when it will choose to work and when it won't - I've probably spent more time reinstalling drivers and swapping round cables and ports on my Powermac, endlessly shutting down, powering it down, restarting and hoping for the best, than I've actually spent working with it. And god forbid you should hot plug it, or you might just fry your FW port - not very encouraging.It's a firewire device that doesn't like other firewire devices, or firewire in general. Perhaps if you give it a whole Firewire PCIe to itself you might have more luck, but I don't have a spare slot or the patience.My personal conclusion is that audio interfaces just aren't meant to run on Firewire. It's a nice idea but it doesn't really work. I would strongly suggest finding another solution that doesn't involve firewire, this has been around for a while now and there must be better alternatives.I've given it two stars, to balance the 5 when it's working and the zero when it's not in the mood.

Really enjoyed getting this product in the mail. The box isn't too large, but it sure is sturdy. The rubber stops on the bottom of it allow you to put it on just about any surface and not have to worry about it sliding around. It stays put as if it was bolted down. It was easy to install, and works great with Logic. The sound I get from it is amazing compared to my older Tascam board. I highly recommend it if you want something that works with your computer.

***THIS IS NOT PROFESSIONAL QUALITY ANYTHING....DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE MANUFACTURER SAYS. ANY REVIEW BEYOND 2 STARS IS COMING FROM SOMEONE WHO'S NEVER EXPERIENCED THE FUNCIONALITY, QUALITY, & SOUND OF A REAL PROFESSIONAL INTERFACE***First of all....RCA outs...really?....how hard would it've been to throw some balanced outs on these things guys???.... Very weak output/volume, cheap plastic (weighs almost nothing), highly susceptible to interference related noise for many reasons including the aforementioned. It's not even worth the low price tag. I finally did something about mine & replaced it with a used Presonus Firebox & I COULDN'T BE MORE PLEASED. There's no comparing the quality of the preamps, features, & build, it's just not fair to the Fast Track. Regardless of experience level, you can't help but notice the enormous difference in sound quality & volume once you get away from the Fast Track & upgrade to a real interface. I suppose I can't speak for the Fast Track Pro or some of M Audio's other higher end units but I'll personally never take another chance on a company that made the embarassing Fast Track & called it, or even hinted that it was "professional". MISLEADING TO SAY THE LEAST. I've been a long time user of Presonus (USB Audiobox, Firestudio) & they're TRULY professional quality interfaces & I know I can rely on them while others fail to compare. Beware using firewires with Windows 7 though. It's pretty hit or miss...mostly miss. I got away from PCs for direct recording & only trust in my Mac for that but just a word to the wise.

ive been working with this for over 2 yers now and its awesome! the only this is that the prottools mpowered 8 it comes with isnt full! you have to by the full version online and when i go to upgrade it, they dont have it anymore!!!!! so im stuck with the trial version... but the mbox is awesome, but just know, that this mbox WILL NOT work with any other protools. this box only powers MPOWERED protools. it will not work on protools LE or anyhting like that..

I purchased this as a replacement for my E-MU 1818 as the E-MU no longer had up to date drivers, specifically for Windows 7 64-bit. Once I installed a PCI-E Firewire card I was good to go. The install was very easy and it came right up. Loaded Sonar X2 and I was recording in no time. So far it has worked really well. It's quiet and no cross talk. It took me a bit to figure out the headphone outs as the volume was really low and apparently they are dependent on the master volume. That's probably my only complaint as the headphone outs are still pretty low volume.

m-audio does not work with ultrabook because the computer must have a strong source of energy. This product should accept a new energy source instead of using just the usb cable.

This product arrived quickly and works perfectly. I didn't even have to use the driver CD that came with it, as Win7 was able to figure out how to work it just fine. A little tweaking of audio input settings in your favorite program and you're good to go.

We need the instruction manual for this product and we had to order cables separately. It is not working with ProTools!

Problem with connecting the 6-pin firewire port on the ProFire to my Mac book Pro with a Thunderbolt port. Contacted ProFire Tech support to no avail. worked it out myself with a series of adaptors. Otherwise, it seems to work fine.

Great price for the quality. You can spend much more and get a better product, but M-Audio products have one of the best price to quality ratio.

I've been using M-Audio products for over 10 years now - audio interface, midi keyboard, trigger finger, preamp, monitors - you name it... In all those years, beside one issue w/ drivers (easily fixed by rolling back to previous version) and one issue w/ a monitor (which was repaired and returned to me within a week), I've had nothing but good experiences with M-Audio. I would not go as far as ranking their products as top-notch, but they are usually solid and reliable. Also, M Audio has regularly been issuing updated drivers for my old Delta 44 ever since I got it, 11 years ago. Talk about product longevity...The Fast Track I bought for my portable Mac based setup. I wasn't expecting much out of the preamps, particularly after reading the poor reviews, but I just finished a basic demo session using nothing but the built-in preamp to track the guitars and the results were good enough. Of course, don't expect the same quality as w/ a dedicated preamp, but the Fast Track provided plenty enough gain, even getting in the red with the gain knob somewhere around 7, something I really wasn't expecting.For the rest, I am not disappointed - it performs just as I expected: low latency and respectable track count. I'm working w/ Logic and performance has been flawless.On the more negative side, the plastic casing does look a bit cheap and the only outputs available are RCA. But at that price, one can't really complain.So basically, you get a well designed low latency USB interface, with direct monitoring at the push of a button, solid drivers, two inputs, phantom power for your condenser mic, a basic preamp. Not bad at all for the price.On a side note - don't expect too much out of the bundled software; it's pretty much just an entry level version of Pro Tools, sort of a teaser to get you hooked. My own experiences w/ Pro Tools (on the PC) has left me believing that Avid is rather picky in terms of hardware compatibility - crashes, poor performance, etc. I didn't even bother to install this LE version.

It's a real nice piece of equipment. Small, easy to set up and good overall quality. If only the volume knobs where not made of plastic, it would have been a work of art!

This is my 2nd M-Audio firewire product. I used the FireWire410 before I upgraded to this one. It runs great, sounds really nice... no complaints thus far!

I have been using this product for about 3 years now in my college's theatre. The setup that we use is a Mac with OSX 10.5.8 to the M-Audio 410 Firewire.When we first got the 410, it worked fine. During the second year of use, it started to "pop" a little. What I mean by "popping" is that during random times, even when audio isn't playing through the 410, a pop would be heard through the speakers. The reason that I know it's a problem with the 410 is because the output lights on the box would light up in all channels. During the third year of use, this problem has become even worse, with "pops" occurring every 20-30 minutes or less. I've looked all over the place for solutions, but couldn't find one that would fix this problem. This is a serious problem for our use in the theatre and I can also see it causing a problem for anyone who wants to use it for recording or even just leisure use for a home system.Another problem that I've discovered with the box is that the support for it is horrible. Earlier this year I had used the 410 with my own Macbook Pro with OSX 10.6.4 and, aside from the popping during the show, it worked fine after I installed the new driver. However, when I began working on another show in December, my Macbook Pro updated to 10.6.5. When I first plugged the 410 in, my Macbook Pro wouldn't recognize it. I went to M-Audio's support website which warned me not to update until a new driver has been released. (Little late for that). However, I checked back frequently and found that they approved the device with a new driver for 10.6.5. I downloaded the new driver, got rid of the old one, and installed the new one. Funny thing was, it was the same exact driver I had updated to earlier in the year. My Macbook Pro would not recognize the 410, which left me speechless since I had just purchased a program license so that I could work on shows with my Macbook Pro.When I hooked the 410 up to the Mac that we normally use, it worked just fine. Puzzled, I looked at the OS of the Mac, and it showed 10.5.8. (Luckily we don't get a good Wifi signal in our booth and the updates for 10.6.5, and the previous OS's, never downloaded.) I am still using the 410 with the OSX 10.5.8 Mac in our booth, but still get the "pops" like crazy during the show.My recommendation, do a lot more research before purchasing any of the M-Audio products. I'm sure there are a lot better things out there.

I needed a rudimentary recording setup for a class I was taking. I initially purchased a Behringer 802 mixer and UCA202 interface, thinking that I would use the extra inputs to expand my set-up in the future, but was dissatisfied with the quality of my recordings(white noise, hissing, etc.). Under the gun, I ordered the M-Audio Fast Track. Man, am I glad that I did. My DAW recognized the device right away and I was recording high quality audio in no time. I've had this little box for a little over three months and I haven't had any issues with it whatsoever. While the Fast Track is a basic interface, with very few bells and whistles, it works and it was under a hundred bucks shipped. Highly recommended for beginners.For reference sake, I used this device on an Intel iMac running OSX Lion. Also, for those considering this product and the Fast Track Pro, I would recommend purchasing the basic Fast Track or saving your money and putting it towards a higher end interface. I bought the Fast Track Pro at a local music store (again, hoping for more inputs) and the levels from both the XLR input and output monitor were very low when compared to the Fast Track.

I wanted to make some simple yet professional sounding recordings for demos etc. I first tried using the built in sound card & mic in my PC because I am very cheap...no good. Poor quality, noise, low gain etc. Purchased M-Audio Fast Track USB2 interface. Also, Behringer C1 Condenser Mic. (don't forget to buy the mic cable, mic comes with none) The C1 needs power and USB2 provides it. Amazing improvement in sound quality. It all cost under $150, within budget for even a penny pincher like me.Don't plan on using the Pro-tools software that comes with Fast Track, it is only a teaser for the $300 full package which is way too much money and too complicated for a newbie.I use Audacity. It is a free download, very functional, easy to use, and with a lot of support. (check out You tube for tutorials)I had no problem with crackling or popping. Install drivers before you connect Fast Track as you are instructed, and also adjust gain as instructed for instruments and vocals and you should have no clipping or crackling problems. I did have some noise problems when I was trying to use the Pro Tools.Fast Track also has a "Monitor" setting for the mic so that there is no delay when playing back and recording another track.I am plugging in a keyboard instead of guitar and I can only record mono. So I copy the track so that I have two and pan one left and one right for a bigger sound. Have fun and be patient.Behringer C-1 Studio Condenser Microphone

I'm unable to use this as I planned for voice over work because there is too much noise in the mic preamp. I'm using an ADK studio condenser microphone on phantom power and the output signal, even when gain is only 50% up, has too much background hiss to be acceptable. Sure, I could process out the noise in the software but that's also unacceptable.It may work fine with a dynamic microphone or with a condenser mic on a louder instrument, but for my requirement it is too noisy. I haven't tried it with anything else.I purchased this to replace a non-USB Behringer mixer that ran out to a Sound Blaster external USB audio interface to my Dell Laptop - a solution that works great, no noise whatsoever! But this uses several cables, extra power supply, and is lots of trouble to set-up compared to the M-Audio.The advantage of the M-Audio is it's simplicity: one cable out to the computer; mic in with phantom power provided; unbalanced instrument input; good headphone output; Stereo line out (RCA), and no power supply required. If only it were quieter.

Though M-Audio is a pretty well known name for computer-oriented music, I had tons of issues with their firewire device that I owned previously to this little number. As I upgraded my system, I decided to go USB and thought that the Fast Track would be a nice, cheap solution to my simple needs of recording guitar and vocals (and I had hoped my troubles with the firewire interface was an anomaly). I experienced many of the same problems as the other reviewers with crackling noises and system issues. I'm running Windows 7 with Cubase 6, and I had nonstop issues with this rinky little device including periods of time when the Asio drivers were not even detected. Sometimes you get what you pay for and yes, M-Audio offers little to no-help, not to mention they update their drivers like once a year. I bit the bullet and bought a Komplete Audio 6 from Native Instruments and it solved all the issues I had with the Fast Track. Avoid this sucker, it isn't worth it.
