Seems like the ones that are generally are the more expensive ones. Think I saw 
where RME made a good one that was easy to use but unfortunately is not one of 
the cheaper ones. Still, thinking about that one currently.

  Aren't there any interfaces with software that could be accessed with a 
screenreader?

  Hi Annabelle,
      Unfortunately, it could be many things but cables would be the first 
place i'd check. Don't think the knot would have done it though anything is 
possible. Usually a connector will go bad and at least a mic cable is cheap. I 
have an m-audio fast track ultra and was hearing no output and turns out it was 
all in the software for the interface itself where headphone outs were turned 
down as well as a couple of the tracks. My m-audio software is not especially 
accessible but once a friend of mine got everything cranked up to where it 
should be, all is well in the universe. I wish you the best of luck. Dave

    Yes, and I also turned on the Input Echo. My microphones are hooked up to 
MOTU Analog 1 and 2 respectively.

    My first guess is maybe the cable went bad. My question is, did you arm the 
audio track?

      Hi, it's Annabelle.
      I have a problem that I need urgent help with. I tried hooking up my 
AKG414's to my MOTU896HD, and I can't get any audible signal from either of 
them. I know I have the pad off, and the high frequency cutoff is turned off. I 
know I have the MOTU on Phantom Power, and that the switch is on Microphone. 
Also, I know that the XLR is plugged in all the way because it clicks when it's 
plugged in all the way. What do I do next? Could it be the XLR I have went bad 
on me? What could it be? This is an XLR that my friend Markus showed me how to 
wrap by simply tying a knot, instead of the usual over-and-under pattern that 
most professionals would teach. Please feel free to Email me at any time, as I 
check my Emails several times each day.
      Thank you so much,
      Annabelle
