Analog Output Issues - FF800

I use a FF800 as the "brain" of my system.
I use two Digimax LTs as the ADAT 1 and 2 into the FF,
Unfortunately, these units only have inserts, and no true analog outputs.

I currently have:
9 actual outputs (8 analog and 9/10), and the way TotalMix is setup, they are mixed as stereo pairs, leaving 5 discrete outputs (minus some clever panning, when possible).

RME Fireface 800-Do I still need PreSonus Eureka or GT The Brick to record wit the FF

Ive got an RME Fireface. would like to warm up the sound. The PreSonus Eureka sounds like a great options and value. I'm on a budget so dont even mention Neve or API, othewise it would be Neve all the way for me. I've been reading about the Brick by Groove Tubes, sounds like more of what Im looking for. Do I need both, one or neither.

Multi preamp interface to acompany Fireface 800

Hi, I'm looking for an 6-8 channel preamp interface with preamps that match those that are in the Fireface 800.

What I've found so far is the Focusrite Octopre MkII OctoPre MkII Mic Preamps

My price range is 300-500 dollars on this unit.

Can anyone recommend the Octopre MkII or point me at another device with pre's equal to those you find in the Fireface interface.

recording tricks of 1980's, MPC 60 sync fireface 800 to DAW vocals and guitar

Man do I need help here. I've tried to get used to using keyboards for creating drum track and I can't stand how slow and lame it is. I have excellent sounds, but the whole keyboard midi drum creation sucks to me. I am by no means a novice at programming. I earned a serious living in the 80's programming drums using Linn and MPC 60's.
