The 410 is quite good but sadly the drivers and software are not as good. I've spent enough time now with the 410 to dump it...i've had enough. The 410 is critical in its firewire behaviour with other fw-devices. And mine has developed noise on the output bus. It used to work so-so with my 2 x 2,5 G5. Oh and it does not work at all with my new MacPro, even though the 1.7.2 driver is specifically written for Intel-Macs. M-Audio! I'm tired of this pretty box!

not so good. - jwolfpk

i just fell for it. I was told at the Apple store to go to Sam Ash (music store) and they would hook me up with an interface. I walked away with the Firewire 410 and have been trying for days to hook it up. The MacPro drivers don't work. I'm at operating system level 10.4.7 and to add insult to injury - M-Audio tech support doesn't work on weekends!!! What a crock. So I wasted a weekend and searched the web looking for suggestions. I even tried the lower version specifically stating macpro Intel. No luck.

Judging by the lack of speed with which they've addressed the Mac Pro problem, I'm not so sure that M-Audio tech support works on weekdays either!
