you don't need the Big Ben, the internal clock in the aurora is fine.

go with the PCI / PCI-E AES-16 to interface the Aurora with your computer instead of Firewire.

get better outboard than the DBX 160A - one or two really nice compressors and EQs for tracking, if you can afford them.

get a much better amp than that Alesis piece of crap, used Brystons can be had for very reasonable prices.

upgrade to UAD-2 quad, if you can.
