Anyone Using Auria for Location Sound?

[devol]

Hi Just wondering if anyone has use Auria for location recording? I'm getting ready to record a TV reality series on a sound stage and I'm thinking of using Auria and the Presonus 1818 or the Focusrite 18i20 for tracking. A couple of questions

Can Auria and the IPad handle 8 channels of audio recording at 48khz / 16bit at the same time for lengths of up to 2 hours?

Does anyone have likes or dis like with the Presonus 1818 or the Focusrite 18i20

Any input would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Jim

Don't know about the 2 hrs thing. Don't have the GB to come close but I'm sure with more memory on your ipad you can come close if not over. I have the 1818 and have done 7 inputs without problem. No plug ins going though and sure it would run 8 just as well. 1818 I like. Simple, reliable, The only problem I don't like is that it doesn't charge ipad and requires powered USB hub. So even if you can record 2hrs you might not get 2 hrs. My ipad is a couple years old and 2nd gen so when I use it to mix on 1818 it dies relatively quick.
