We use the BlackMagic HyperDeck Studio Pro for recording.  SDI inputs 
for video and XLR inputs for audio.  Doesn't stream, however.  They have 
several models of the HyperDeck, but the pro is the only one with XLR 
inputs for audio.

Alternatively, their new ATEM TV Studio HD has XLR inputs, so you could 
replace your current switcher with that, and then run the output to a 
recording deck of your choice.

For streaming, we have a RackMac running wirecast that takes the output 
of the HyperDeck and puts it up on our website.
