Tascam or Alesis firewire ???
I've been using an entry level 2 channel mic pre with a PCI card and would like to move up to a firewire interface with at least 4 or even 8 decent mic pres.
I've seen a couple of things like the TASCAM FW-1804 and the Alesis IO units and I think Phonic and Yamaha have similar things . Also I've seen reference to some units having built in FX. What are these like?
They all seem to be doing pretty much the same thing but I guess some would have better pres and some would, no doubt, have less glitches.
Any advice or warnings would be appreciated.
