I think Beepster just got one but I can't find the thread. I was sure it was in X1 forum.

Thanks anyway Ed, it seems to be a good thingy to put in the live-rack, connect the direct outs of the mixing board to it and use Scott's trusted 1QMV :)

I believe they are considered above average interfaces.

Well, the original Focusrite Saffires; 2 in 8 out, not the Pro 10.
Works well for me.

Alex, I have the Scarlett 8i6.... Same everything as a Safffire, but with a "Scarlett" software bundle.
No issues, at all. I've also heard that the Focurite preamps are well above average in midrange gear.

I don't have any experience with Focusrite's I/O gear (I use a Echo Layla 24/96), but I have had a mic pre from them. I ended up getting rid of my Focusrite Twin Trak Pro because, while it worked great, it got extremely hot! So hot that I was afraid it would catch something on fire so I kept my Presonus MP20 and let the Focusrite go. Of course, the mic pres in my Macking 1202 VLZ Pro are excellent for a mixer so they get a lot of use too. I did like the VU meters on the Focusrite though...
Time for all of you to head over to Beyond My DAW!

Sorry... didn't see this originally. As was mentioned I got the Scarlett 18i6 but IMO Focusrite makes a great interface. Haven't tried the mic pres yet but the high Z is really clean and full. Enjoy.

Alex I use a Saffire Pro 26 i/o and I love it. Very nice Pre's and great on the Hi Z's for guitar.

Yeah, man. As I was saying in my meandering, probably way too detailed thread on my Scarlett I plugged my bass straight into it, set MixControl to Instr. and the signal I got was like an Ampeg dialed into super clean and present. Completely clear, workable signal. In fact I'm so happy with the result I doubt I'll have to do anything to it aside from minor tweaks to reign it in a bit. I use to have to spend AGES drawing out my bass signals. Not with this. So happy. I can't wait to try out the actual mic pre stuff.

If someone from the Netherlands can't pronounce it, then if must be good!

It's OK, Beeps. We're all friends here. If you're really sensitive about your name, we'll find something else to give you a hard time about.
