Buying some new equipment. Really needs advice!

I'd probably go for the C + UAD option aswell. This is what I had up until a couple of weeks ago when I sold the C to get the Ti. The C is still an amazing synth and the UAD compliments it really well.

I'd get UAD over powercore definitely as UAD have just brought out a couple of wicked plugins - a precision limiter and a plate reverb. It's also a better option for compression and EQing.

The UAD card has definitely taken my productions to a higher level and things are sounding more punchy and polished, for that "embedded" sound. I feel closer to sending demos off which is my aim at the moment.
