Quadcapture to Octacapture

I've been really happy with my Roland QuadCapture but will soon be receiving a Kronos 2 and I'll want to feed all 6 outs to a sound interface so I am thinking about the OctaCapture.

What other interfaces would you recommend over the OctaCapture and why?

SONAR Platypus on Win10 64bit.
Studio One Pro / Cubase Pro 9.5...just in case.
8GB i7-2600 3.4GHz Gigabyte  Z68XP-UD3P
Geforce GTX970
Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 2nd Gen
Prophet 12/Rev 2/Virus Snow
Zebra2/DIVA/NI Komplete 10

    I have an Octa-Capture but upgraded last fall to a Studio-Capture as I needed more than 8 inputs at times.  I could have daisy chained two Octa-Captures together but I went for the Studio-Capture.   
     
    But, I liked the Octa-Capture and Craig Anderton wrote a glowing evaluation (next best thing to girls  LOL) on Harmony Central.
     
    Prior to the Octa-Capture, I had a Focusrite Saffire Pro 40.  The Saffire Pro 40 gets good reviews and I thought it was great.  However, the Octa-Capture's preamps are as good or better and the Octa-Capture's Limiter function is a plus. 
    My Octa-Capture worked on both Win 7 and Win 8.1, however I had to get the updated Win 8.1 driver from Roland.
