Hey, I have had my firebox for about 3 years now and its starting to suck and make pops and sound awful when i record. For my new interface I have narrowed my choices down to these two:
Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 - http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SaffPro24/
Echo Gina 3G - http://www.zzounds.com/item--ECHGINA3G

The Focusrite Saffire seems like the way to go but when looking at reviews on sonicstate.com I saw it got a 4.1 and many many complaints http://www.sonicstate.com/digital/model ... 8&manuf=98.

Which one should i get? Any suggestions for other audio interfaces for under 300ish are welcome as well. I wana be able to have 3 stereo outputs so i can go into my mixer and i wana be able to record (with mics or guitar). I also want an audio interface with no problems and a long life. And, I'd be using it with a mac book pro.

Get the Focusrite Saffire 24 Pro. It's much better than those 2. Quick and easy to install, no nonsense bs.

I have heard good things about both products, find as many reviews as you can, the one with lease amount of negatives I would go with.

yea the problem is, is that i can't find many comments on the echo gina, but the saffire has tons of reviews... unfortunatly some of them are qquiet negative, so it makes everything harder..
