Hey There,

They are a DIGIDESIGN circuit and are generally not considered very good. Fortunately, you can add external pre's in several ways. You can add 8 channels via lightpipe with a Presonus Digimax, Focusrite Octopre and several other units, or patch external pre's into the line inputs via analog. The advantage of lightpipe is that you are bypassing the cheap converters. Its not that they are so bad, only that the technology gets better every year so the new stuff tends to have better converters.
