<div>I have a friend who has Focusrite Saffire 24 DSP or maybe without the DSP . it works well on macbook when we used just few inputs only but it had some issues when we tried to record ( almost 2 years ago from now) all the 8 inputs all together ( problem on the two inputs with phantom power used).</div>
<div>Maybe the firmware is updated now days, i don t know ... or maybe the issue was because his Harddisk was too slow ??... </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Otherwise my advice with no regret would be RME !!!! </div>
<div>as you could read everywhere RME element are better than Focusrite ones ... </div>

I have had it for maybe 10?! years, which is good but it has not been without well documented problems in the past that come and go, so I'm thinking its time for a change from motu. Looking at the Focusright Saffire pro 40 right now. Thinking of staying FireWire, and the Saffire products are compatible with thunderbolt/FireWire adapter (not sure if this is just marketing bull.)<br>
<br>Anyone have any thoughts on gear, love/hate certain companies? Looking at the price range and specs that roughly match the Saffire pro 40/828. But may get decide to get a smaller interface as a stop gap (wait to see the new thunderbolt interfaces) if there is one that really stands out.<br>
