I don't know, in my experience phpbb is pretty scalable, plus you get ui points just because everyone is familiar with it...

I don't know, I've had success with most of my m-audio products, my way outdated quattro and omni burned out, but besides that I have a midiman keystation 49, O2 and BX8s and they all work great, bear in mind they cater specifically to people on a budget.

Well you can always (in arrangement view) slice up an ordinary drum sample (select a portion and press apple+E) and rearrange/duplicate those to make a oll or a fill. Also, beat repeat is useful for making fills.

one thing you might consider, does the x-station have hardware monitoring? this is a (basically) latency-free monitoring system that allows you to listen to the inputs via the outputs, regardless of what the computer's doing. It's quite handy, and especially for recording vocals it'd be indispensibl...

Not sure exactly what type of inputs or what bitrate/sampling rate you can get with that, also, I'm not sure if it's fw or usb, but I think you gain a lot of versatility by getting two seperate parts, especially since you're unconcerned with live performance (aka toting shit around) and usually it'l...

well, you probably want 24-bit, 96Khz. Apogee A/D/A converters are supposed to be awesome, but most consumer interfaces will work out just fine for you.

you might consider a dedicated i/o card/box and an external controller. The M-Audio O2 is pretty good, I have one. you might consider the Numark TTX, it's rock solid so it eliminates any hum, and it has digital out.

Or if you have an extra room to spare, instead of using it as a tracking booth, run some pipes from there to your rack and install a liquid cooling system. This is a moot point.

You're going to have fan noise if you're trying to track in the same room as your computer. Best you can do is dust it out frequently and keep your processor intensive tasks down while recording.

I have an HP4 and an edirol FA-101 which is similar to the firebox inmany respects. the latency won't have anything to do with the HP4. You just need to connect your master outs (usually 1 and 2) from the firebox into the left an right inputs on the hp4 and than connect your monitors to the hp4 rear...

Get the macbook, with the 7200RPM 100GB hard drive, 1 Gig of ram in one slot (you can buy another gig from another dealer cheaper than apple later on if you need to) then spend what's left over on a kickin live bundle!

despite the stupid name, just buy the MacBook Pro. it'll be the shiznite for live, just get the 100 GB 7200 RPM hard drive and as much ram as possible (not from apple if you like money) and you'll be good to go.
