M4 : Swapped out NI for MOTU

As the title says, I had the NI interface previously but wanted more features (more ins)

This is as good in sound quality, but not reliability.

Sometimes the unit (out of the blue) delays the input/output signal by about a second.

Input will occasionally be unavailable for no apparent reason.

(unit must be powered down to rectify, most days in the studio)

The input gains are too sensitive (for guitar) and too close to the inputs

My MOTU is up to date on drivers/software, as it my mac.

I wouldn't use it live, it could prove a liability.

UPDATE late 2020 onwards

Now very stable, all previous problems resolved, again the usual case of the end user being the beta tester for a newly release product. Have to say I would now recommend it
