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.
mics: Soundfield ST450, JW mod Milab VIP-50's, Milab VM-44 Links (Matched Cards, Matched S-Cards), BR mod Nak 700's
pre's: Audio Developments AD 066(11), V2, Littlebox, Tinybox, Reutelhuber
recorders: Sonosax SX-R4, Tascam DR-680, Korg MR-1, Tascam DR-2, Mackie DL32R
playback: Teac UD-501 DAC > Meyer Sound
