Presonus Firestudio Tube?

[-Loco-]

Worth it? Im seriously thinking of packing in my focusrite saffire pro because it's only giving me shit...also the tasty analog limiters and 'tube warmth' dont sound that bad either.

Just so you know, they run off the same DiceII chip-set. So if you are having computer/driver problems I don't think it's going to help. Presonus just open beta'd a new driver, but I have no Idea what's up with it, I usually wait until a final release if any.

You know, I saw this and I was so excited that maybe JUST MAYBE they'd finally have better drivers available... for 64 bit even!

I've never had an issue with my Firepods the 3 years of owned them, not once. Fortunately, I have upgraded to a Fireface 800 since then too.

We're not talking about the "Firepod" though. We are talking about the "FIRESTUDIO" line. Two different beasts.

Yeah... For whatever reason the more expensive and supposedly higher quality line gets the worst support...
