What's up with this??
I saw it on ebay a long time ago and kind of wrote it off.
I went back to see if there are still listings now that I'm a member of this sweet forum.
This has to be too good to be true.
cgi.ebay.com/AVID-888-DIG...id=p3286.c0.m14
But why?????
I think the only relevant equipment description I would have to tell you about is that I use Cubase 3, but it even says it works with Pro Tools III!!! Other than that, I know it would work with the hardware on my computer PROVIDED I go and buy the scsi card for my mobo (right?).
Edit: I accidentally posted in the wrong section (mixing), so I deleted that post. Sorry for the double, hopefully it gets deleted?

Aug 18, 2009 07:11 pm That deal is too good to be true to be honest. You would need more then just a SCSI card to run that. The 888 I/O is an audio interface used with Pro Tools Mix, Mix Plus,Project (3.2 or later), Pro Tools III (3.0 or later), or Session 8 PC (2.5 or later). It connects to any of the following cards:Mix Core, Mix Farm, PT Project, Disk I/O, Bridge I/O, or Session 8 PC I/O.
The clock in the thing is absolutely one of the worst, next to a sound blaster.
To make it work decent, if at all you would be looking at spending about another $2000 or so. And that price wont stay there through the whole action. He has already withdrawn it twice as it was getting no bid's.
