MessageWell, that's not quite true!
Both the PCI 324 and 424 do work at 24 bits!

Well, the real drawback with the older motu stuff is that you can only work
at 44.1 or 48khz and it really only works at 16 bit.

Phil replied: It's very unlikely that the MOTU would be the cause of
stability issues. I used to run an AMD Athlon XP 1.6Ghz system with 512MB of
SDRAM and never experienced any stability issues with the PCI 324 at all. I
ran a MOTU PCI 324 system for 7 years. In fact, I would say that it was having
that hardware that allowed me to run 30 to 40 tracks of audio, with a ton of
plug-ins and 2 instances of DR-008 running DFH. I only upgraded the system
because the PC got hit by a lightning strike and even then, the MOTU still
worked solidly in my new core duo system. If you getting some stability issues
then, it could be time for you to do an OS reinstall. I don't have the MOTU
now, as I have changed over to an FW1884 with an Octoper Platinum Pro. My MOTU
has gone to a good home though. Tim burgess has it in his studio.

It depends on the mother board he has on the new DAW.
I had the same issue when I bought it.
The ASUS board will accept the old 324 card wher the Intel board wil
not.
This is well documentation on the MOTU site.
And, in my opinion, with a core 2 machine one should take advantage of
the PCI Express card anyway.
It really rocks.
I've had one for one year and it has never failed.

What do you mean, "doesn't work with the PC?" You have a PCI324 card
in stead of a 424 card? What's failing? It should work. Can you not get
drivers? Have you spoken to MOTU Tech Support? They're a bitch to get a hold
of but helpful once you do. Did the card used to work in your old PC?

Hi all
I have a new pc with a duo core 3ghz.
I have a motu 2408 with an old version of the pci card.
This card doesn't work anymore with that pc.
Does another kind of card would be good as the motu or I should
upgrade my motu pci card.
Wich card is the most stable with sonar and caketalking and also of
a professional quality.
Thanks
