I don't know if this is inappropriate for the mailing list but since I'm not affiliated w/ the company I think it's a good service for the MAD users. I just bought this little gizmo and am currently testing it w/ the latest MAD plugin and the out_wav from http://www.blorp.com/~peter/ it works like a charm w/ 24bit output and the sound is awesome. it also comes w/ the ASIO low-latency USB audio driver from www.usbaudio.com . I can't wait to connect it to my headphone amp at home and try it w/ my Grados :-)) for all of you in northern america you can use the coupon at www.tracertek.com . for more info http://egosys.net/1-pro/eng/product/u24/u24.html
