Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 DSP

[Mark Kaufman]

I'm giving this unit a shout-out because it was immediately rock solid on 64-bit Windows 7. What a relief.

I loved my TC Electronics Konnekt 24D, but once I upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7, I kept running into driver issues, drop-outs and blue screens. All signs pointed to the Konnekt, even though it was up to date on software, drivers and firmware.

All issues gone now. I haven't wrapped my head around the VRM yet, but I'll report on it someday after I've done a lot more mixes with it. For now, I'm just basking in the glow of an interface that works. Yay.
