Hey Chris, One thing to consider is that the M-Audio interfaces require the use of some software to set parameters outside of or, more accurately, along-side Pro Tools and that program is not yet accessible. I think it will eventually be but not exactly yet. true, it's possible to set those parameters once and forget about them but, if you begin opening sessions from other sources where the sample rate and bit depth are different, well, it might be quite a hassle. If you just plan to work alone, it's not a big deal.
