On M-Audio's own homepage for the MicroTrack they state:

"powered via USB, rechargeable lithium-ion battery or power supply (both included)"

On some other sites showing off the MicroTrack, such as the SonicState site for the video link... earlier in this thread it says:

"powered via USB, rechargeable lithium-ion battery (included) or optional power supply"

I sure HOPE that M-Audio does the right thing and includes the Plug-In Power as pictured earlier in this thread. I would think almost everybody would need the adapter right away anyway... and it would be crappy of M-Audio to meet a price point by making MANDATORY accessories "optional". Even if that was the case I'd sure want it to be clear when I bought the thing so it didn't arrive without being equipped for travel. They clearly state that it comes with a 64mb flash and you KNOW that's trash so you order a larger card at the same time (I did).

BTW does anybody know how to tell what compact flash cards will be compatible with this thing? I'd hope they ALL would, but I read about some people having problems with certain cards (such as Lexar 80X cards) in some devices. I have a 1GB Lexar 80x and it's been fine for me... but others say you should check compatibility... and considering the HUGE variance in the price of CF cards I'd like to know if a good deal is really a BAD deal...

I didn't know there was a problem until I saw myself sitting there with a glass of tap water, eating an oregano sandwich on a two week old hamburger bun... and the only thing going through my mind was, "God I love this new shotgun!"

wont that be funny...if it doesn't.  and we all buy this thing...and use it at 16bit.
d'oh!!!


I plan on using it at 16bit till I make the 24b jump with my recording setup and home system. For me I have no need for 24b and this will be perfect ...

I just poke fun at it being in the tristate area, it is as common as Bud, of which I like neither, give me my Victory Hop Devil ... now back to the MT thread  8)

d'oh!!!

I think just as intriguing will be how BT and archive deal with the sudden influx of 24-bit files. Then again, maybe people with do their own dithering to 16-bit first. Outside of a lot of us audio geeks, most people don't care if they get 24/16 bit files, WAV or MP3... Thus the sales of the iPod.

I know I dither everything and seed it....and usually hold onto the 24/96 files for myself and circulate them to a few friends...because your right, very few of the general public can do anything with them...

For those of you who ordered from djmart, where it used to say "usually ships in 2-3 weeks" it now says "usually ships in 5-7 days". Either they just got a shipment or are expecting one very soon!

I'm still hoping I get it by thursday for use friday. Apparently, it must be charged 6.5 hours before first use.

Anyone get a shipping notification for theirs yet?

All of Germany will soon figure out just how much Budweiser sucks. They are the world cup sponsor, and will be the only beer served at the 2006 World Cup. I'm alREAdy hanging my head in shame for what they will say about "The King of Beers." Methinks the riots will be about the beer served....
