For those who make the music we enjoy.

Where to start? This is primarily for roject studio and field recording work. It can be powered soely by its Firewire jack, which is nice. Its got Saffire preamps for microphones, which are very nice. It has a very high quality, high speed DAC, which is excellent. Finally, it drives headphones so well it kicks the hell out of many solid state dedicated headphone amplifiers. This, my friend, was not expected. This is an excellent multitasker for people who like headphones and making music, not just listening to it.
