This is quite a big leap your making. As much as I like to promote Linux
based pro-audio, you should make very sure that changing out your entire
system like that won't cause you problems.
I am gearing towards an RME Hammerfall card
and a behringer A8000 adat interface.
I would rather recommend buying the Alesis AI-3 if you want to use the
ADAT interface. This gives you more freedom to use various preamps.
(IMO, berhringer's preamps suck) If you've got money you may want to
invest in a nice preamp.

ok reading a little more I see that in linux you will be missing out on
your Cuemix software for the Motu, which would be needed to initially
route the adat to the analog i/os. You can always dual-boot, or have
switchable HDD caddies, one for windows one for linux, using windows
just for the Cuemix. Then again if you are still considering a
Behringer, heh I'll send you mine in exhange for your Motu (and even
pay the difference! I can control the Motu from my iBook...).

If you need ADAT convertors, I can also recommend the Marian Adcon
(www.marian.de).
They work quite well and give you also 2 mic preamps.
Which reminds me, that I should write them again to ask about Linux
drivers for their UCON CX soundcard...
sincerely,

I have been using a MOTU 828mkII under Windows and love it to death.
All those ins and outs are great. ~2.3ms latency on my 2.4GHz laptop.
So sad that it doesn't work under Linux.
I was thinking of switching to an RME Multiface, too. The only bummer
there is no hi-z guitar level inputs, or mic pres on those boxes. I'm
sure the ones on the 828mkII are only so-so, but seeing as I don't have
any stand alone mic pres, it would be a big loss for me.
