The potential pitfall is the build quality and software stability. I had a knob fall off once and one iteration of software in the past wasn't the most stable in the world. BUT their customer service is top notch and they get you fixed at lightning speed.
IMO the next step up from the FireStudio is the FireFace800 but that's what, double the price? And I still think the presonus pres are nicer than those. |
Interesting, I had considered the MOTU 828MKII, but I wasn't interested in built-in effects or the two inputs. I also considered the RME Fireface800, but I would've had to buy less expensive monitors.
