Well, it seems that focusrite will be jumping into the larger scale firewire market with this unit:
http://www.focusrite.com/productdetails.asp?id=61&iRange=5
Seems that it will probably be a direct competitor with Presonus's new Firestudio, since it will also have 8 pres, 2 ADAT's, DSP Mixer, no remote but costs $200 less. It also does 192KHz vs. Firestudio's 96KHz (not really any deal breaker for me, but...) Also says that the pres are based on the Green series pres. Does anyone have any experience with those?
Does anyone own the current Saffire? How is the driver stability on it. I've had no problems with my Firepod, but it would be nice to have a little more expandability, and I'm not so sure about $899 for the Firestudio. I would get another Firepod, but I've heard of people having issues with the dual Firepod setup, so I'm not sure.
