[QUOTE="Eric Eskam, post: 65063, member: 2124"] Re: Reaper & USB over XUF card As long as you have a quality chipset and driver, there are no issues with Firewire. Funny how Mac's never have issues with firewire ;)~;-)~:wink: USB isn't quicker. It's got higher latency and CPU overhead. There's a reason more video happens over Firewire. You got a card for USB - why not get a good high quality FireWire card instead? If you look on audio boards where people use firewire for DAW, there are lists of good cards with good chipsets out there - you don't have to flounder blindly. But it sounds like it's a configuration issue anyway, not a USB/Firewire issue... Aha, it was a config issue, and it sounds like it may have happened with FW just as well as USB. Figures! However, if you get dropouts or "glitches" in your audio, be aware that FireWire - once you get a stable setup - will ALWAYS outperform USB and might give you much better results on the same hardware.
