Marstead Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I have a brand new laptop with a USB3.0 port in lieu of the typical high-end FireWire port. I have a MOTU 8pre for recording which has a FireWire out and Digital Optical (toslink) out. As far as I can tell there is no such thing as a FireWire->USB Converter or Adapter, but are there any workarounds I could try to get audio from this device to my laptop, such as a hub or similar device? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexstyle Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I looked for something like that myself a while back, and from what I can tell, nothing exists like that. Believe me, I wish it did, too. >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzumebachi Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 if your laptop has a PCMCIA slot you could get a FireWire expansion card. if not, you're SOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
