RE: Firewire interface recommendations



I have not done an exhaustive search for the UltraLite mk 3, but all the 
"big players" (I guess defined as those whose sites Google throws up 
first, and with whom I have done business at one time or another - 
S'water, MF, Zzounds, etc.) list the UL mk3 as discontinued, or when you 
search on it they present a different Motu.

A place called Abe's has them, or so the site says... but the next issue 
is that the ULmk3 is outside my budget.

I've now seen enough concerns about the pres on the AudioFire8 that I've 
been swayed towards the FocusRite Sapphire Pro24.

Thanks to everyone who weighed in on this. I'll let you know how it goes.
