I'm looking at the Lexicon u42s or the Edirol ua101.
They both look good.
About a hunderd bucks dif but the Edirol has more controls and inputs. I really like having a limiter on the Edirol. The Lexicon is a sexy little interface and I like the output control on it as well as having gain controls for each channel, not to mention the dbx preamps for each channel. But I think the Edirol may win out based on functions. The Edirol preamps are great too, not to mention the sampling rates on the Edirol go up to 192k and the Lexicon only goes to 96 with both at 24 bit. I know I know.... what the hellck am I going to use 192 for? Well I do have synths and it would be nice to catch all the nuance of the sounds.... and they are there, not to mention the sound from the mic would be rather sensitive and revealing... Do I really want to hear the subtlties of voice? Or have a forgiving system that would help me out? Bahhhh, I'll take the reality of revealing sound.

They are both USB and that means no brainer!! Wink

Another vote for the Edirol UA-25.

I had similar firewire issues. Most of them, pops and clicks, were solved by switching out the DVD drive, but some remained.

No problems with the UA-25 and I like the sound of the pre. Nice amp for headphones too.

I do wish all the controls, phantom, limiter, sample rate, were on the front, but not a big deal.
