OVERALL OPINION

For starters, do not buy the firewire card without the test if you have a laptop. I myself wanted to run the Saffire LE on my Tosh P100 and I can not use that outlet because I paid for clicks coming ... As against it works beautifully and without annoying lag on a pc fixed the same age (1.2GHz AMD and 256 ram !!)...
After some compatibility issues resolved, so here I am in possession of an excellent tool for a first sound card.
I am satisfied with the 4 analog inputs, mainly because of my budget to save for a baterie I group multiple microphones to the inputs 3 and 4 ...
However, taken for guitar / voice duo is even very comfortable.
The preamps seem good even if I did than my Mackie to compare ...
The multitrack recording works great in Cubase and MIDI input / output are handy for home recording.
The software provided (Saffire Control) is much better than the Firebox allows you to mix and independently returns headphones and mix tracks in six out ...
I would add that it is very beautiful, compact, and it does not heat unlike the firebox ...
Finally, I am delighted with my purchase and highly recommend in this price range.

edit: A few years later, the Saffire LE is still there and works perfectly. I do not use more than troubleshooting because I remplée by larger cards. Its price has come down significantly, making it a formidable card at low cost.
