Has anyone done a comparison between these two units? The ADI-8 QS AD/DA Converter looks fuller in features but how does it sound in comparison to the Aurora 8?

Hi! I'd like to know your comments and/or opinions about the new RME interface. Is it worth 2k?
Thanks!

Since there are so many of us using the RME FireFace 800, I'm thinking it would be a great idea for us to discuss the advantages and tips on how we use TotalMix.

What are the coolest totalmix features?

How do you use it for custom monitor mixes?

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.

Hey there:
Just looking to discuss some opinions with RO members who have used either or both the RME FF800 and it's preamps and/or the A&H ZED16R preamps.

Do you have a preference of one over the other?

Because quite a few of us have these devices, I thought I would post that RME has released the latest driver just this month.

will i notice a big difference if i upgrade from my MOTU 828 (mk1) to an RME multiface (mk1)?

i produce electronic music and don't do much actual recording.

i can buy a used multiface for $400 however i will then need to purchase the expresscard ($600! new and i cant find it used anywhere) so the overall investment will be about a grand.

My MOTU 8pre died after a couple of years, with absolutely no help from MOTU. The customer support is non-existent. Months of trying to call, email, technical support online, etc. I'm done with them.

I'm looking at the RME Fireface 400. Opinions on this one?

Other suggestions?

I use it for my keyboards, guitars, and vocals with Cubase SX3.

Didnt see a thread for this so decided to start one.
Just saw this in my search for a new interface. so my question is, i have read that you can use the MOTU 8pre as an interface alone, could you use the RME quad mic as an interface? Or does it need the ad converters?
Could you run this into a duet to use thier converters?
Or is that not even a good idea?

First of all I use Cubase 5 on vista 64 bit (soon windows 7 64 bit) So please point out to me whether one of them aren't even compatible.

I want the best sounding card I can possibly get that will make an Avalon preamp sound as good as possible and have worth while features.
