Hello All;

I ordered an M-Audio Fast Track Pro 4x4 USB because I wanted to experiment with PC based recording. I ordered the hardware knowing that it would take a few weeks for it to arrive. I have just received the following email from the music store where I purchased the hardware:

“Sorry there is such a delay on your order, but it is a supplier problem. Currently we have 288 on order for the chain, so we're waiting everywhere. There are none available at any of our Ontario stores. Unfortunately I can't offer any ETA at this point since M-Audio has gone through a massive change due to being purchased by Avid. Is there anything else that you would consider?”

I’m wondering if someone could recommend an alternative to the Fast Track. I chose the Fast Track because I read that M-Audio had reasonable driver support and worked with PowerTracks. The Fast Track would allow me to record 2 mics or a mic and guitar simultaneously. I also read that some people are using the Fast Track as their PC’s sound card (I believe only for midi) and that it sounds pretty good.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
