Moving from Pc to Mac Pro now i need to go from pci to ?

Hi there, i am currently running a Pc with Samplitude and my sound cards are m-audio delta 1010 and delta 44 pci cards. i am considdering buying a mac pro and using logic 8 but this move will mean that i have to sell my pci cards and move to firewire or pci express sound cards as the mac pro does not have pci slots.

step down voltage for 1980's MXR limiter

I have an old MXR limiter guitar pedal, the kind with the attached AC cord from the early 80's. I'd like to use it as an insert limiter with pro tools b/c I like the way it sounds on vocal tracks. the problem obviously is that it's wired for instrument level input not +4dbu.

What should I put between pro tools output and the MXR input to step down the voltage?

Thanks.

something so dumb i should be shot

Hey all-

I feel I must share with some of you something I discovered today in my home studio set up. Since it happened to me, maybe, just maybe I can save someone else from having the cartoon donkey that appeared over my head this afternoon.

MAKE SURE YOUR DIGITAL TUNERS ARE SET TO 440 HZ!

Here is my dumb ass story if you are interested:

I need some help

I'm wanting to create a semi professional home studio, and i know what mics i want, and some of the gear i want. But i've got about 5000-10000 to spend on the studio...
So, i'm wondering in order to achieve what i'm going for, studio wise, i want to get the DigiDesign 003, but i want to know what else to get with it...
mixer?
preamps?
compressors?
