Re: OT -- USB audio interfaces

["Luigi Meloni" <Luigimeloni74@libero.it>]

I was relating the Rme digiface to the Motu 2408 mkII which has almost the
same potentiality. And here in Italy the RME is a lot cheaper than the 
Motu,
even the 828. Plus the RME should be 24/96, so you should compare its price
with the motu 896.

Peace
Luigi
