There is an 828MKII which is firewire. I assume that your computer
already has a firewire port on it. If it does, you're fine. Again, as
for a mixer, that is determined by whetther your speakers are powered or
not. If you used a soundcard with speakers and no mixer before, you'll
be able to do so again witht he 828. Again, MKII just means Mark 2,
which is the next in the series of that produc. It has nothing to do
with PcI cards.

Sorry, guys. I don't understand any of this. The ad said it was
firewire, not a PCI card. In looking at MOTU's site, I see info about
the 828 with the mkII interface and it talks about the product also
functioning as a stand-alone mixer, just as my M-Audio USB Omnistudio
can. However, this older 828 doesn't have the mkII.
Would someone please tell me the difference without confusing me with
PCI cards and the like. I can get a firewire PCI card installed to
accommodate the 828. Why would I need another PCI sound card too, when
I have JFW running off my on-board card and all other sounds running
through my M-Audio?
Thoroughly confused
Kylee
