Audio Interface for Logic Studio/MAC

[TRichardsbass]

Hello everyone.

ZOOM is having driver issues with the R16 and the Mac OS Snow Leopard and Lion. So, can't use it as my audio interface anymore.

Need recommendations for a decent but not super expensive audio interface that works well with Logic. While I love what Steve Jobs created, I've noticed the bulk of support for the OS as well as most of the software that comes with the equipment is all Pro Tools or Cubase optimized. I have been using Logic for a while and it has maybe the best virtual instruments and loops I've found in one package.

Help!

Presonus Firestudio Project. Excellent interface and good quality mic preamps.

Totally on the Presonus front! I love mine, would never get rid of it.

I use the Apogee Duet. It's my favorite so far.

I previously used the Apogee Duet and really liked it. I'm currently using a Mackie Onyx Blackbird, and like it quite a bit more than the Apogee, and the Duet was certainly no slouch. If you need 8 inputs, give the Blackbird a look. If you only need 2, give the lower priced Blackjack a look. Solid mic pres and converters coupled with true analog monitoring is a great thing.

That's a pity that such a nice hardware is being put to pasture because of a software driver problem....

Does the below link offer any improvement to your current situation?

The last driver update was from 2010. The official proper update should be coming soon... one would hope.

(Logic is a great all in one package!)

I use a Motu 8pre. I love it. But my guitarist uses a FocusRite interface, and I have to say that I've been very impressed with it.

I use the Focusrite Liquid Saffire 56 and have only positive things to say about it.

I use the Presonus Fire Pod and their studio module. Both work fine.
