Focusrite Saffire Pro 10io (although I think it might be EOL) has served me well
for most of this year..
However the ffado driver and mixing app is not as stable or reliable as what is
available for the Delta 1010 .. I used to have one of them..
I don't regret the change though as the Focusrite has a better sound.
