Hi Louis, We recently experimented with some interfaces in the framework of a paper I had to write for an Audio Engineer course. As far as FireWire is concerned, there is the FreeBoB project others referred to. But thought you can find some reports of working setups on their site, I think this is still pretty much a developers' thing (they are at the pre-alpha version). We personally tried the Tascam-US122 over USB 1. It has two balanced mic/line inputs with pre-amp and 48V phantom power on 1/4 TRS jack or XLR, the jack inputs impedance can be switched for guitar/bass input, and there is a TRS insert point on each channel. It has no RCA-inputs (but that's quickly fixed via the line-in), but it does have RCA output. There's MIDI in/out, but no digital audio connections. It was a bit of a hassle to get it up and running (we are running the lastest version of DeMuDi), but we got it working for audio in/out (when using jack, increasing the Periods/buffer parameter from 2 to 10 made the audio free of distortion. With the -default?- setting of 2, it sounded horrible). Till now, we couldn't get it working for MIDI in/out.
