[QUOTE="Geri O'Neil, post: 146789, member: 25"] Re: uTrack 32 for X32 - first impressions from an owner I'm a little surprised to hear of difficulties recording from the X32 to a notebook. I use a MacBook Pro late 2011 model, although I did upgrade the HDD to a 500gb SSD and 16gigs of ram (you know...the good ol' days [i]when you could actually upgrade a Macbook...[/i]). I'm using Reaper for the DAW. I was able to trade my X-USB card out for a card with FireWire from an older model that the owner would never use. I've done several live recordings that have gone pretty well, no hiccups, other than operator error. I used to the console to mix the recordings down, it was just easier at the time. If you do this to any degree, you really need a large screen, more than a 17" (that you can't get any more anyway). I was interested in the uTrack, until I read about the playback method, which seems kinda clumsy. But there's a few other things I need to spend money on and right now it's hard to justify the expense of more recording gear (which I didn't intend to get into in the first place!) [/QUOTE]
