Audio interfaces for the future

[Ibi Sum]

I have to pitch in and also say my Presonus setup is still rock solid great. 50+ channels of instrument I/o, over FireWire. 2XFP, +StudioMixer digital, recording my two treasured 19” stacks of about 14 instruments.

Plus, I co didn’t this system kinda future proof since I can easily park a Linux DAW in the rack for a few more years. :)
