saffire pro 26 i/o

I've ordered one. Wish me well. They're back-ordered, so it must be a hot item at the moment. Anyway, I've read a couple of good reviews, so I have high hopes.

I'm currently using a Delta 1010, and I wanted to want to have more inputs (and the 8 Focusrite pres should be nice). I'll use a Beri ada8000 to bump it up to 16-in, and an ART DPS-II that I already have will go in via spdif, for 18-in total (26 if I also use the Delta - not sure they'll play well together). I'll add another 8-in ADAT-out converter later, or possibly an actual ADAT machine, to exchange tracks or projects with ADAT-based studios.
