Hello everybody, been lurking for a long time here, but this is my first post.
I am currently using a Tascam FW-1804 as my interface to a MacBook Pro, with a Presonus Digimax D8 connected via lightpipe. I am considering upgrading to something like a M-Audio Profire 2626 or Focusrite Saffire Pro-40.
I am just wondering if this would be money well spent? I have plenty of inputs for what I am doing, but would like to get some improvement in my sound. I have a good sounding room, decent monitors, and low end microphones (MXL 991/603s, (2) SM57s, Blue Bluebird, and a few cheap dynamics.)
I guess what I am trying to ask is how much of an improvement can i get going from the Tascam to something in the range of the Profire or Saffire Pro 40? What would you guys upgrade first? I mostly track live bands if that helps at all.
Thanks
