I've not heard the Firestudio's pres, but I hope they are a little
better now I've ordered one!

When will yours be in? Curious to hear what you find.

Got the Firestudio.
Seems to work well with the built in firewire on an Asus P5K motherboard.
The preamps are quiet enough and sound fine with a 57,58 and a U87. I'm
going to try a Coles 4038 later on to see what happens. Having all the
XLRs on the front of the rack is a little unwieldy, but the thing is
absolutely covered in connectors, so I guess they had to go somewhere.

The mixer and monitoring is great, with separate solo and mute on all the
separate monitor mixes. So I can solo stuff to my headphones without
messing up people's headphone mixes!

Altogether, I'm happy with it so far.
