Presonus Inspire 1394 Firewire Recording System.
2 mic inputs ( with 48v phantom power)
2 Line Inputs ( keyboards/Guitars running from a POD etc)
The Rear has:
2 RCA Phono Inputs ( Hook up Mics via external pre amps through these inputs or plug cassette machines or any other line level stereo outs into these inputs)
L/R Stereo Outs ( run to a mixer or powered speakers)
Headphone Output
2 6 pin fire wire ports
Drivers on install disc.

I don't use ASIO drivers and I would never edit on a laptop by choice.

> "Mainly voiceover work for me:

Really surprised at the use of KM84s for voiceover. I've got a couple and use them for TV interviews and drum overheads, but always stuck with the idea that you use large diaphragm for close micing voiceovers.

Would be interested in finding out what led you to use them in the first place.

BTW, on the original topic - Focusrite Saffire Pro 26 i/o and ASIO

I have an old M-Audio Audiophile USB that I mainly use these days as a headphone interface (has volume control). 2-channel, 16 bit only.

For stereo recording (mainly from audio tapes and LP records) I use a PreSonus Firebox. Firewire interface, 4-channel recording, 16 or 24 bit.

Both interfaces have SPDIF that I used to use with my DAT recorder, which is now gathering dust.

I also have a Zoom R16 (up to 8 channels simultaneous recording) that I now use for recording on site. It can also be used as a computer audio interface and as a controller for a DAW, but I have never used it in these ways.

I think the latter two devices use ASIO.
