My band is going up to http://www.studiometronome.com to record our drum tracks on an SSL... We're taking everything back to my house for overdubs.

Being that this is a budget gear forum,I would like responses to be within the $100-$150 range. Yes, the more expensive the better, but I record as a hobby (stress relief), not professional. Personal experience would be great. I will be using this in a DAW set up running Adobe Audition 1.5 going straight into a Audiophile 2496 soundcard.

Thanks

Hi all. I just wanted some opinions on what pre(s) to look at...
I want to buy one nice pre mainly for electic guitar and male rock vocals. I'd like to keep it around $1500, but cheaper is always better (duh). I'm going to be recording alt/rock/prog directly to a DAW using a MOTU running at 96k and 24bit. A little color would be nice I think...
