HELP! HELP! HELP! PLEASE!

Aereogramme are supporting Biffy Clyro at Music Hall but they have a huge problem. Martin the keyboard player is unable to use his laptop as his audio interface is broken. I don't really know what he is talking about so I'll quote what I have written down...

"An audio interface for a laptop....sometimes known as a firewire soundcard(?)...basically to run output from a laptop.."

Does anyone have one that Martin can borrow for the gig tonight...or know of a shop in Aberdeen where he can buy one???

Please post back if you can help

There's a computer repair shop called Tech Rescue on Rosemount Viaduct

(01224) 622312

No idea what kind of stock they have for this kind of thing.

Failing that there's always PC World on Hutcheon Street if they can get over there

0870 242 0444

They'll probably have it, but it would be expensive.

Martin phoned them but said that they didn't have a clue, so I sent him in person to go check it out.

They don't have any firewire interfaces in the selection they have in the instrument department. The only ones they have are USB.

We (as in the 'upstairs' department) have nothing like that either as we don't specialise in computers. We only specialise in Audio equipment like Hi-Fi/Surround etc and TVs.

They should have tried a computer shop. That would've been the most obvious place to try as firewire isn't a standard instrumental connection unless you are using a computer.

Everest would've been a good place to try as would Grampian Electronics.

You don't phone a car mechanic and get him to fix your home plumbing so by the same token phoning an Instrument specialist and asking for computer accessories isn't going to be fruitful :up:
