I bought an alesis io/26 firewire interface today from my buddies music shop. It was secondhand; paid $159. It came with cubase le. Haven't gotten it working yet. My laptop only has usb ports, so I need to find a converter for the firewire. It's 6 pin to 4 pin. I'm getting an education on recording equipment.
Question: Will audacity work with the alesis or should I stick with the software that came with it?
I think my old cassette 4 track was easier to set up.
