Like many Firewire interfaces, the 1814 can be powered over the Firewire buss if your computer provides the six-pin version of the interface, or using an optional adaptor. All the rear-panel analogue I/O uses robust quarter-inch jacks, although like the jack inputs, these can only be run at the consumer -10dBV standard, making the FW1814 not the ideal interface if you have gear that uses the 'pro' +4dBU standard. However, it only has half as many analogue outputs, although this time all four can be used balanced or unbalanced, which is a huge improvement for anyone who's ever run into ground-loop interference problems. The mic/instrument preamps can be switched in to defeat the first two unbalanced line input sockets on the rear panel, and there are a further six unbalanced analogue inputs on the rear panel, making the 1814 far more versatile than the 410. There's also a momentary A/B switch with associated LED that I'll come back to later, and the front panel is completed by a power switch and status indicator. Next up are a further 12 'blinkies' for the eight analogue inputs and four outputs, and beneath these a software-assigned rotary encoder just like the 410's, intended for control of monitor levels. Next to them are twin stereo headphone sockets, each with its own rotary encoder level control, and then signal 'blinkies' that show S/PDIF and ADAT in/out activity.

The mic/instrument inputs are on the same Neutrik Combi sockets, with a switchable 20dB pad, rotary gain control, signal and clip LEDs, plus globally switched +48V phantom power. The front-panel layout is also very similar to the 410's. However, you can bolt it to any universal rackmounting kit using two holes provided on the bottom of the case, and the appropriate screws are thoughtfully provided. I suspect this is because M‑Audio sell the Firewire 1814 as part of their mobile interface range and want to keep it compact. Some musicians might question why M‑Audio didn't adopt a full-width rack case, especially since six of the digital sockets emerge from a rear-panel breakout cable rather than fitting on the panel itself. It's the same height (1U) and depth (160mm), but slightly wider at 168mm. In appearance the Firewire 1814 could easily be mistaken for the 410.

This is largely because eight of those ins and outs are devoted to ADAT I/O, although you still get eight analogue inputs, four analogue outputs and co-axial S/PDIF in and out, plus word clock and MIDI I/O. With its 18 inputs and 14 outputs, you might expect their rather more ambitious Firewire 1814 to be substantially more expensive, but it's still a very reasonable £449. This again provides two analogue inputs, but this time without the mic/instrument preamps, plus four analogue outputs, co-axial S/PDIF and MIDI In and Out. They made the point even more forcibly with their £229 Firewire Audiophile, which was reviewed by Mike Watkinson just two issues later in SOS May 2004. This features two analogue inputs with mic/instrument/line level options, eight analogue outputs, plus both co-axial and optical S/PDIF and MIDI in and out, and has proved very popular. M‑Audio proved that Firewire audio interfaces don't have to be expensive with their £349 Firewire 410, which I reviewed in SOS March 2004. Dual line inputs are ideal for effects, drum machines, or other outboard gear.M‑Audio's half-rack interface provides a comprehensive selection of analogue and digital I/O at a competitive price. The FireWire Solo has a 1/4" input for electric instruments, as well as an XLR input for recording vocals or acoustic instruments.
