I have a bunch of audio and computer gear for sale.  I'd prefer to sell it to friends, so I'll give all ya'll first crack before I have to throw it on Craigs List:

I just upgraded my audio interface, so I'm selling my old one.

It is a MOTU 896 firewire interface; 8 mic pre's (that are also dual use as 1/4" inputs), 8 XLR out, AES i/o, ADAT i/o (and ADAT sync), coax clock sync i/o, XLR L/R main outs, etc.  This is the first version, not the current HD that they have out there, so no CueMix built in.

Let me know if you are interested.  I think it's worth about $500, but I haven't double checked.

Here is a Sound on Sound article about the 896 (since MOTU's site only has info on the current model):

Oh, I also have a MOTU 2408 (version 1) PCI interface.  Probably part with that thing for pretty damned cheap.

I ordered the Line6 Gearbox Gold Edition today and therefore can get rid of both of my PODpros. I'm still deciding what to do with my guitar POD, but I am putting my Bass PODpro out for sale. This is the non-XT rack mount version. It looks like this:



I'll let it go for $250.

I also have a floor board pedal you can use with it:



The wah pedal is not working, but this is only due to a blown capacitor which could be easily replaced. Not to mention the fact that you probably aren't going to use the wah function when you are playing bass. I have barely used the floor board at all. I can throw it in for another $100.

Let me know if you or anyone you know may be interested.

NOTE: All pictures above are stolen off the net. I haven't taken pics of the gear myself yet. The bass PODpro has been living in my rack for years and I still have all the packaging for the pedal baord.

For anyone out there that has money to spare for their audio gear, I suggest you check this out:

I am contemplating getting a Line6 USB Guitar Direct Box with the Gear Box plug-in instead of upgrading my PODpro to the PODxt-pro.  Anyone have any experience with the plug-in?  Is it basically the same exact thing as using the PODxt for recording?

If I do get it, part of me wants to sell the PODpro, but then again, I may end up playing live at some point where I could really use it.

The notion of finally moving all my guitar amp simulation from a hardware interface into my software as a plugin makes me jitter with please.
