That doesn’t have a Firewire interface, does it? I thought I had one of those.

Oh, I’m thinking of the 1010LT, not the 1010. That lives on a PCI card.

No I’m talking about the PCI card, just commenting on the longevity of some devices. I know two people still using FireWire for their interfaces in spare kit (RME fire faces), which got me thinking of some of my old kit I’ve replaced like the delta1010.

These days I’m mostly pushing dante around

Yup, that’s what I’m doing… an rme fireface. Incredible device, but uses fw. And since Microsoft is a bunch of aholes, I have to figure out how best to go forwards post windows 10. Except since I’m poor it’s my main interface that I’ve upgraded to.

Ah, gotcha. Just for the record — though it doesn’t really matter as regards your point, because I was incorrectly assuming that you were using it as an example of with something with Firewire onboard — there are apparently two different products:

The 1010 has a PCI card, but it talks to an external box:

The 1010LT has a PCI card alone, no external box, and then a ton of cables that fan out directly from the card:

Neither appears to have a Firewire interface. IIRC, the 1010LT was less expensive, was the one I was using.

  PCI + BoB is what I had
  
  I still have my FireWire card as I mentioned, but its only for that VHS + minidv deck (well and my old canon camcorder which does better with some of my minidvs. This process is going to take me years, I have so many to get through….)
