Subject: OT; Audio for Macs

Excuse my bandwidth, but MOTM folks are a fountainhead of knowledge,
and I need some advice. Now that everyone's egos are sufficiently
stroked ;-)

I have a 450 Mhz G4 Mac and am in the market for an audio/MIDI
interface. I have an original MOTU MTP but can't use it because Macs
don't have serial ports anymore, and I'm leery of serial-USB
converters when it comes to MIDI. What I'm looking at right now is a
toss-up between a Digi-001 and a MOTU equivalent. Budget is $1K or so.

Besides sequencing & recording MOTM music, I also need to digitize old
vinyl records, 33s and 78s (remember those?). I already have a Denon
turntable with a digital out, so the DAW software I settle on will
need to run a good vinyl restorer plug-in.

If anybody has any suggestions, email me privately. And when Tony K's
MOTMized Expresionist becomes available, I'll have a JKJ CV-5 for sale
;-) Thanks lots.
