    The Alesis IO/26 Firewire Audio and midi interface is a high definition recording MACHINE. The results I got from this product were excellent and I would definitely recommened it to anyone interested in building a home studio. Would be better if the Firewire connection was actually USB and therefore a lot more adaptable for different situations, but still a brilliant buy. Professional results for a lower budget!
