Default Hooray Firepod

I am a big fan of the Presonus firepod (now called the FP10 I think)... nice crystal clear preamps, sturdy enough to lug around to on-site sessions, pretty no-nonsense all around. Mostly it just works. (And, i've never tried, but apparently you can use it as a standalone 8-channel mic preamp, there are direct outs.)

BUT--- beware of motherboard chipset incompatibilities, they announced (after i'd struggled for a couple months) that it was incompatible with the motherboard of my computer (an amd shuttle i'd built out just for this). It still works, but only when the graphics display is set to fairly primitive levels-- no games for me. (Which means I get more music done, so it all works out ok).
