Looking to buy a recording setup with at least four simultaneous inputs
For cheap?

If you can manage firewire, a big advantage is that MOTU continue to update their drivers for newer OS's. I'm running two different firewire cards right now on a 2012 Macbook Pro with firewire, but they're actually more stable plugged in via a firewire to thunderbolt. Less hassles when waking up from sleep mode and generally less finicky.I'll sell you a motu 896hd, everything works last I checked, its been sad sitting unused in a closet for years. 8 decent pre-amps, only thing to consider is if you can manage a firewire interface.
I actually have a fire wire interface but I don't have anything to plug it in to. Can you help an ignoramus out here? How do I make this thing work with a computer that only has usb?

Check out these options. The H6 comes with stereo small condenser mics that aren’t too bad. SW has a demo for under $300. No computer necessary for any of these options.I was just thinking that this digital recording became a thing long enough ago that maybe some vintage stuff might be within my means?
I guess I'll need to learn how to work on computer hardware sigh.
I had hoped someone had put all their whole setup in the attic ready to go lol
Do I understand you correctly that you’re looking for a computer and interface for $400?H6 looks pretty good, thanks. I have a H1, it sounds decent too.
Still looking for a whole old desktop setup if anyone digs one up.
