I've had a MOTU 8pre for close to about 7 years now. It has never let me down. The preamps in it sound great and it works like a champ. 8 1/4" or XLR ins, optical for whatever you use optical for, phone out, and two monitor outs. However, those monitor outs just send a line level out, so they can be used for reamping. I've been debating going to the Apogee Quartet, but, as a Kemper owner now, I feel like I need something with SPDIF built-in, and, unfortunately, while it's a stellar interface, it lacks that. That's ok though, those Focusrite Scarlett interfaces are nice (and much cheaper).
What about the AVB line? Surely there's something there you could use?
I keep bangin' on about it, but that line of interfaces has set a new price vs performance bar, IMHO.
