Thinking of getting a new audio interface, My budget it 550 or less.

I have been looking at Presonus FireStudio Mobile and MOTU UltraLite-mk3 Hybrid.
Just wanted to see if any owners like any of these audio interfaces.

just got a saffire dsp pro 24 and couldn't be happier.. coming from RME hammerfall and some crappy m-audio before that
the VRM on the saffire is really great.

focusrite saffire pro40 or Alesis IO|26

I would suggest Motu, specially if u are on OSX.

saffire pro 24 dsp here too. great sound, vrm is useful, nice software and excellent routing capabilities, and a very reasonable price.

i had a presonus firebox before that and it was a terrible experience, shit driver support, shit customer service and cheap build quality, i'm never buying anything they make again.

just have to echo saffire pro 24 dsp.

wait for the RME Babyface

used RME perhaps?

Have a look at TC Electronics Impact Twin!
I got one for a couple of weeks now and i'am very happy with it!
Great Sound,great preamps and built very well!
Had some problems with midi first but now everything works great!

I picked up a used M-Audio Delta 1010 for under $200. So far I've been very impressed. I would love to get a PCIe interface in the future, but for now the 1010 is great.

+1 thats the trophy at my next wallet draining gear fest.

Saffire pro 24 or 40. Silky smooth sound, super pres and great driver. I use the pro 40 live with 6 ins and 8 outs.

I would go with the saphire in a studio set up (which is what I currently have now after yamaha and m-audio cards for playing in clubs I use Native Instruments Audio 2 which is also a nice piece of kit.

Thanks for the reply's. Thinking of getting Saffire Pro 40 or the TC Electronics Twin Impact, I'll still be looking around.

Apogee Duet is the way to go if you have a mac
