PreSonus DigiMax D8 - Multi-Channel Microphone Preamp with ADAT Output
The DigiMax D8 from Presonus is an eight-channel microphone preamplifier, featuring eight Class-A XMAX microphone preamps, coupled with eight-channels of analog-to-digital conversion via an ADAT digital output. Each of the preamps include a direct output (in addition to the digital output), a variable trim control, LED metering, a 20dB pad and +48V phantom power (switchable in pairs).
The front panel features two 1/4", Hi-Z instrument inputs for plugging-in electric guitars. The balanced 1/4" TRS outputs on the real panel allow the unit to be used as a standalone microphone preamp with any analog mixing console. The unit also includes Wordclock sync input for ultra-low jitter and robust synchronization, making the DigiMax D8 a perfect front-end solution for any DAW with an ADAT optical input.

Add it to the DigiDesign 003 and you get an extra 8 Pre-Amped channels! If you are going to set it up that way, make sure to also pick up the cabling to connect them.
