Digi 003 rack preamps compared to Presonus Eureka
May 9, 2010 Recording
How are the Digi 003 preamps compared to the Presonus Eureka? I’m going to purchase the 002 or the 003 for about 100 dollars more. I have the Presonus Eureka and wondering if i should sell it if i get the 003.

I’m finding myself flying over the Atlantic a lot recently, often packing my suitcase mainly with mics and rack gear. I’ve started wondering if I could get any gear that would afford me more room for clothes and presents

Headphone & Digi 003
May 6, 2010 Recording
I just bought a Presonus HP4 thinking that I could send all the tracks to a stereo bus and then from that bus through the outs on the digi 003 (7&8) so after I did this to make a headphone mix I put on the headphones and everything came through except it was through one ear of the headphones.
