BIOS Magazine Looks at the Miglia HarmonyAudio
Posted by Jason Dunn in "ARTICLE" @ 04:00 PM
"Miglia Technology’s HarmonyAudio (£179) is an external FireWire audio unit that allows you to record your music instrument or take audio from any analogue source straight into GarageBand, LogicAudio, LogicExpress or any other Core Audio application...The HarmonyAudio (220x110x38mm) is an attractive (sports a brushed aluminium finish and is anodised in cool silver) and effective solution for anyone in a band, or even a home user who wants to turn his computer into an audio recording studio. The HarmonyAudio is also the first audio capture unit powered by Oxford Semiconductors’ 970 chip, widely acknowledge as the leader in FireWire technology."
If you're a budding recording artist, this is where you start: a box that allows you to connect your guitar/bass/kazoo and have it bridge into your PC. These boxes allow for a much higher level of quality than using an adaptor and plugging it into your sound card line-in port. I have an M-Audio USB unit that I use for recording our ThoughtCasts, and it works amazingly well. The device reviewed here looks like a capable unit for the price.
