 MOTU 828 MkII
I've always appreciated that MOTU hardware generally installs and runs without any problems, and though there was a little initial delay in supporting the Mac OS X platform (which was as much due to the changing nature of OS X as anything), the drivers MOTU have come up with are rock solid in my system.
As before, MOTU's Mac-only Audiodesk multitrack recording software is bundled with the interface, and offers a multitrack recording and processing environment not dissimilar to the audio side of Digital Performer.
Note that the 828 MkII has been designed to allow you to use multiple units together, but whether this is possible depends on the operating system of the host computer and/or the audio software you're working with.

 : MOTU Introduces 24I/O PCI Audio Interface
AudioDesk software ­ A 24i/o core system includes AudioDesk, MOTU¹s sample­accurate workstation software for Mac OS with 24-bit recording/editing and 32-bit automated mixing, processing and mastering.
MOTU, Inc. (http://www.motu.com) has announced the 24i/o, a single rack-space 96 kHz audio interface for Macintosh and Windows personal computers.
The 24i/o rack interface, which will also be sold separately as an expansion I/O ($1,195) for any MOTU PCI-424 system (such as MOTU's new 2408mk3), provides 5-segment front-panel meters for every input and output and software-switchable (-10/+4) analog input levels.

 MOTU 2408 Mk3, 24I/O & HD192
MOTU On The PC This is the first time I've had the chance to try out some MOTU audio interfaces, but I was keen to do so, partly because as Mike points out in the main text they have attracted a reputation of being problematic when used with PCs.
MOTU sell each interface bundled with a PCI-424 as a 'core system', and also offer the same range of interfaces without the card, as 'expansion I/O'.
MOTU have refined and developed original concepts, removing some of the rough edges (literally, in the case of the 2408 Mk3 and 24I/O's enclosures!) and improving the feature sets of what were already highly capable designs.

 MOTU - HD192 Core Audio System - [Sam Ash]
It is a high-bandwidth digital audio format capable of carrying up to 24 channels of 96-kHz or 12 channels of 192-kHz digital audio in and out of the computer at the same time.
This gives you the ability to integrate external digital audio sources, no matter what the sample rate, while recording audio at higher sample rates on the analog I/O of the HD192.
This means you can power off, plug-in, add and remove interfaces without turning your computer off or restarting.

 MotU 828 features
One of the best things about the 828 system is that it doesn’t make you invest in a lot of expensive, computer-based hardware (such as extra Audio interface and or DSP cards) that you’ll have to scrap or trade-in every few years at enormous extra expense.
The design philosophy behind the 828 is to provide you with a system that will grow as your computer grows - a system that takes advantage of the technological advances we see every month from the personal computer industry.
The 828 is as easy as it gets For other digital audio devices that don’t support sample-accurate synchronization, the 828 supplies standard word clock sync (in and out).

 Mark of the Unicorn 308 Digital Interface
Many prospective purchasers of the 308 already own a MOTU 2408-family system interface and PCI-324 card, in which case the only necessary purchase is the 308 box itself.
Connecting the 308 into a MOTU system is simple.
The MOTU 308 is a single-rack-space-size chassis with 64 small LEDs and three switches on its front panel.

 MOTU 2408 Mk3, 24I/O & HD192
Compatible hosts are Audiodesk and Digital Performer, which communicate with the PCI-424 card via the MOTU Audio System (not requiring ASIO drivers), and Cubase SX and Nuendo, both of which can fully utilise the sample-accurate location support features in the PCI-424 ASIO version 2.0 driver.
The third folder is a MOTU Audio/Audiodesk folder, again at the root level of your system drive.
Audiodesk resembles a cut-down, audio-only version of Digital Performer, allowing the recording, playback, editing and mixing of audio without the need to purchase further software.

 : MOTU Announces 1296 Hard Disk Recording System
The 1296 audio interface will also be sold as an expansion I/O that can be "mixed and matched" with MOTU's entire line of audio interfaces, including the 2408, 1224, 24i and 308.
The 1296 core system includes a PCI-324 audio card with three "Audio Wire" connectors, allowing users to expand the system to three 1296 interfaces for up to 36 simultaneous channels of 24-bit 96 kHz input and output.
The 1296 audio interface has a double-space, rack mountable steel chassis with twelve XLR analog input connectors, twelve XLR analog output connectors, stereo AES/EBU in and out, word clock in and out, and an extra "AES" word input that allows the unit's AES/EBU section to independently resolve to an external word clock source.

 Mark of the Unicorn 1296 Audio Interface
Up to three 1296 I/O units can be connected to the system's single PCI card for a maximum of 36 input and 36 output connections, or one can connect - as I did - single MOTU 2408 and 308 units to the PCI-324 card's other two Audio Wire inputs.
Regardless what software you use with the MOTU 1296, the host computer determines the number of tracks that the software application can record and play simultaneously, as well as the amount of real-time effects processing that can be applied to a mix.
With the 1296 I/O unit, MOTU has succeeded in extending its hardware and software universe into the world of high sample rate recording, losing none of the previous units' "no muss/no fuss" bulletproof reliability in the process.
