Need Help Finding a Cable

You'd think this would be easy to find, but I'm having the darndest time locating one.

I'm trying to hook up my compressor to my mixers "insert" jack. I need a cable with a 1/4" Male TRS on one end and two 1/4" Male TS on the other.

I can jury rig one from a local electronics store, but I'd like a cable designed specifically for this purpose.

Sebatron vmp-2000e for Heavily Distored guitars?

Well I've been searching for a two channel pre to record metal guitars and I've heard so many good things about the Sebatron I'm definatley considering purchasing one.

But would this pre sound good for heavily distored guitars?

I searched the boards to see if any one had used a Sebatron pre for this purpose, but I couldn't find any.

Using an Apogee Rosetta AD with a Digi 002

Okay I have a chance to get a 2 channel Apogee Rosetta AD with the 24/96 upgrade for cheap! I'm currently running PT LE with a 002.

If I use this unit, I will of course have to do my sessions in 24/48 because I will use the rosetta's ADAT output. Is it worth it to go from 24/96 down to 24/48 just to use an Apogee?

Channel Strip or Just Pre-amp?

I'm looking for my first really nice mic preamp and wondering if I should go with a channel strip with compressor and EQ, or just get the best stand-alone preamp I can afford. I don't have outboard EQ's or compressors to use, but generally don't record with much EQ or compression anyway. If I bought something like a 737, I might end up never using the EQ.
