Thanks for your input, much appreciated.
I don't know anything about clocks. If you have the time, it would be great if you could explain what makes the Behringer clock crappy. Thanks.

Essentially it has to do with the sampling frequency stability. The Analog to Digital Converts (ADC's) and DAC ...

I'd venture to say that for your setup the preamps are less important than the quality of the converters, and especially the clock of whatever unit you buy. The 2 pre's and the converters on the Apollo are really good, and with unison can get some awesome sounds - use those for microphones or if you ...

Since it's only additional inputs you're after, you might look into analog to ADAT units such as a Digimax. You have 8 channels of digital input you're not taking advantage of. You would be able to record all the inputs simultaneously, if you wish (unison only on the built in pre's though).

Anyway ...

No such animal. The 160 is 5400, the 200 is 4200. The biggest 7200 made is 100GB.

They're like Korg's Legacy Cel on steroids

I haven't tried any of their firewire interfaces, but I've owned a Gina (original 20 bit), Layla(original 20 bit) and Layla24 - loved them all. Great sound and VERY solid drivers - the Layla24 is still in my MDD G4. It's been there for 4 years from OSX 10.2 thru Tiger, and I think I've only had to ...

Very excited to see Tranzport support! Unfortunately, it seems to crash consistently when changing tracks. (I'm on an MBP)

Ah, fantastic! I have both types, and knew that the BCR didn't yet have a native MC mode - those files got me goin!

Many thanks!!!

Um, I'm a little confused - this thread makes numerous references to running Mackie mode on a bcR2000 (R as in Rotary)- How is this possible? It's my understanding that only the bcF2000 (fader version) supports emulation modes. What's the scoop??

The Residents new album, 'River of Crime' contains 2 blank cd's. It's being released as episodes over 10 weeks, and the package contains a code to download the tracks as they become available. Then you can burn the cd's when it's complete.
