Haven't played with one yet, but I have heard that Yamaha worked with Steinberg to develop this one.
The pre's come from Yamaha's MGP series consoles, which have a pretty good reputation.... and the 24/192 capability is beyond that of most other interfaces..... Overkill, perhaps, but, still.....
Worth a look, I suppose... Especially at that price point. I've also had my guy recommend Roland's new Octo and Quad interfaces to me. I've heard them..... and they DO sound good. YMMV.  _________________ Don Brookshire

Just ignore the MIDI in/out and you'll be fine. Everyone has their favourites and you'll probably get a bunch of "don't get that, get this instead"... but as per our discussion, and what Don says as well, there are well-respected pre-amps in there... probably as good as you're going to get in what's basically an interface unit (not a dedicated pre-amp). So, good pre-amps, headphone monitoring, a pair of balanced line-outs... and the guys over at GearSlutz seem to like it as well. _________________ Bish a.k.a. Bish
