| For what you want, I don't think the Ultralite is that much a step up from the Firebox. I used to have a Firebox but sold it for a MOTU Traveller. I clock that to an Apogee device. I've been happy with that Traveller. I upgraded not because of preamps but because of the amount of digital connections I needed.
If your connections are not a limiting factor, I'd get better preamps than the ones in that Firebox. Plenty of good one or two channel preamps for now and then upgrade your conversion in the future. You might want to check out the Apogee Mini-MP. Don't even think about getting that Blue Tube DP. Save up for
preamp(s) that are better than that. |
