BLA now modding Focusrite Saffire 40 and 56
Black Lion Audio is now doing mods on the Focusrite Saffire Pro 56 and 40 units. I know a lot of people like these units with Protools so I wanted to point it out.

And it's so cheap, too! At least compared to the old 002/003 upgrades.

I've seen this too, but I'm wondering what happens with the liquid pres. Since they are changing the components the sound itself of the pre's will change, and with that the entire emulations will be thrown off, not very practical I think.

In fact, on the mod page they say nothing at all about the pres, so it's safe to say they left them as they are since it would take the whole point out of buying the LS56.

Re: BLA now modding Focusrite Saffire 40 and 56
Even if the pre's are improved, it shouldn't do anything bad. The liquid pre emulations are done via software (or perhaps firmware built in to the unit). The pre's themselves are probably very neutral for this purpose. If the mod's affect them, it would just probably give them more headroom and less noise.
