I own a first generation Focusrite Scarlett 18i20. I can't really understand the need of very low latency when recording, because the Scarlett has got an internal mixer, which can monitor the input signal nearly at 0 latency. And I think that the Presonus doesn't have an internal mixer, or at least it's not controllable from a linux machine (the first generation Scarlett mixer is controllable since kernel 3.19 thanks to Robin Gareus' reverse ingeneering work of the protocol). Of course if you use virtual instruments latency is important, but I always used the Scarlett as a simple recorder, so I cannot tell if it works, I usually use a PCIe RME card when using virtual instruments and it works well even with vanilla kernels and threadirqs, I get some xruns when I use some heavy cpu virtual instrument sometimes.
