Anybody have an experience with this box? I'm looking at it for use as a cheap preamp with inserts and direct outs so I can connect it to the stereo channels on my soundboard and not tie up four mono channels. I want the inserts so I can run two of the channels through a compressor. It seems the only real difference between the Akai EIE and the Pro model is if you use it as a computer interface, the Pro model outputs 24bit. I may never use it that way but might as well have it over the 16bit version.
