I think it's about time. Firewire is showing up everywhere. This should be announced at Digiworld which starts tomorrow I think.

    I think so too. Maybe even ProTools LE for OS X ? Or is it a combined Firewire 2 announcement ? Apple at MWNY and digidesign in Nashville ?



    cheers

    Digiworld is July 18 and NAMM is the 19th so Digi will be busy. I think going Firewire is going to be natural for them. They have to offer more features and functionality over the Mbox.

    I guess it makes sense to go Firewire since the Digi001 is PCI based and Apple hates the PCI slot.

    Yes but look at the flash pick of the control surface. That's what is baking Digi fans noodles. Is it portable? Does it support TDM. Flying Faders? The hype is outta control on the Digi Boards.

    Oh, I missed that one. Its pretty neat. It surely will have flying faders, thats why the faders are metal (in addition they look good that way), so they can sense when your fingers are on the fader and turn on the automation.
