The Scarlett 8i6 looks identical to the Saffire Pro 14 except its color and usb instead of firewire. The Saffire Pro 14 works in stand-alone mode and passes digital signal. I would have to expect these do as well. However, the bit rate and sampling frequency must be set when connected to the computer. I do find the preamps to sound surprising good for the price.
