I just recently took the plunge into computer recording and I need some sort of audio interface. I know that firewire is supposed to be better, but I don’t have the money to get into that. I was looking into getting the Lexicon Omega, but I noticed that Bad Mister mentioned the Yamaha MW10. I noticed that the MW10 does not have midi I/O on it. I have an MO6, so do I even need midi I/O? Will the MW10 function the same way as the Omega? I am looking to make a purchase in the next couple of days, so please help me out. |

Re: Yamaha MW10 or Lexicon Omega?
You are looking for an audio interface. You do not need a MIDI interface in the case of the MO since it has a built-in USB-MIDI interface which is preferable over standard 5-pin MIDI because you communicate with your computer on several simultaneous MIDI ports.

Re: Yamaha MW10 or Lexicon Omega? Bad Mister, thanks for your reply. In your opinion, which audio interface would be better buy for me? The Omega or the MW10? Is the MW10 a true audio interface? Why is it not listed with other audio interfaces on music store websites? Will it do everything the Omega would do for me? Thanks again. |

Re: Yamaha MW10 or Lexicon Omega? I have decided that since I don’t need midi inputs on my audio interface, that I am going to get the TC Electronic Konnekt 6. It is firewire, and after the rebate it’s only $180. Thanks Bad Mister for your help. |
