Hello,
 
I'm considering purchasing a MOTU 828.  I'd like to know the following (from other PD users who have a MOTU)
 
1.  Will I have 8 discreet inputs and outputs in PD?
2.  Will there be ANY noise? (produced by PD or by the MOTU unit or by the ASIO drivers?)
3.  Will I STILL experience latency?
 
4.  Is there a better audio i/o hardware to use with PD?
 
 
Many thanks
Dave Sabine
