Wow, you guys are fast.  Thanks for all the input!  With these
pointers I quickly found a bunch of suitable external firewire models
from new down to second-hand.  I've just reserved a second-hand
Focusrite Saffire pro 10, which I'll pick up next week thursday if all
goes well.  Looking forward to try it out!  This one definitely has
all the features I would want, from the looks of it.  Great that it
has 8 XLR inputs.

Thanks again!  I'll let you know when our first multi-track recording
with Ardour is on our website.

Kind regards,
