I have been looking between (lo-end) Motu ultralite to (hi-end) rme fireface 800. i play in a live band so having 4 or more mic pres is ideal, especially for drums. i would like to do studio and live recording but studio is the higher priority. can anyone recommend something they have worked with. my preference would be something that plays real nice with mac os and hardware. i dont wanna necessarily buy cheap and i also want some versatility. any help is appreciated.
thanks

First off, what software to do intend to use?
If you plan on using Logic, I would strongly recommend that Apogee Ensemble interface.
It has 4 really smooth sounding preamps! The Apogee Ensemble seamlessly integrates with Logic and Mac drivers (core audio) The ease of use and sound quality is tremendous with the Apogee Ensemble.
Check it out..
