but only if you don't mind latency.

the fireface is a cool thing if you need microphone-in (it has built int 
mic-preamps and is powered via firewire - so you only need yor laptop, 
the fireface and some decent microphones to make high-quality recordings)
ieee1394 transmits data in bursts (at least, that it is how i understand 
it) which makes it unusable for really low latency applications (a 
problem which is not present with the digiface or MADI-cards)
