wow... like i said. i'll report back.

well, now that the dust has settled a little bit and if the original author of the thread doesn't mind i wish to take some time to explain what i said before a bit more. First- "money is no object" that was just a figure of speech. My company has done work for studios who ponder every other year of ...

but i heard that a major recording studio (in their money is no object sort of ways) wanted to know if the new SSD drives actually SOUND better. If what i heard is true, their golden ears could tell the difference and preferred the SSD over the older type when they did a shoot out. Well, that's the...

i know this doesn't help because i literally over heard someone say it. who said it? i don't remember. i guess its an urban legend at this point to me, but id for sure would like to know for sure. maybe someone out there has heard more about it, but i heard that a major recording studio (in their mo...

from what i've heard of the units that are like this.. 8 analog I/0 and two sets of adat ports for about 700-1200 dollar range, the profire2626 i prefer the most and its not even the most expensive one. its just a little bit scoped sounding, but in listening to the D/A it has a lot of headroom and t...

So I disconnected the ADAT XT from the RME, minor change in crackle frequency. I then raised the buffer to 256 from 128. This did get rid of the crackles, but I really think this system should be able to handle a 128 sample buffer. Am I just asking too much of this technology? just a suggestion tha...

My concern is with clocking. My 002 clocks via SPDIF to a BL Sparrow. Neither have word clock out. Would the 2408 clock to the 002's ADAT out without clocking errors during record? I know I could clock to the 2408 via ADAT, but that would render the Sparrow useless. just give us a call and we can h...

wow.... its AMAZING how they are to cram that much stuff into small spaces these days. thanks for correction. im usually 2-3 years behind technology when it comes to computers.

the only problem you may run into with lap tops is the RAM. that desk top you had you could probably max out at 8-16GB? if im not mistaken the new mac laptops only to up to 4GB? if you plan on only doing 12-14 track sessions at 44.1 with a few plug ins for field recording, then you might be ok. ok.....

before i respond to this, i do understand that this has gone of subject. ok... my light pipe interface (Personally modified Tango 24 which kicks the crap out of a lynx aurora sonically ) well... uses light pipe cable, so I can't use aes in that case. lots of interfaces don't have aes, the cheaper un...

i did have one more thought on the subject... durability and warranty. if anyone is a live guy, or someone who's running a huge studio where failure is not an option, and if there was a failure, hey... that twitchy guy from the huge record label might irrationally choose to go with a different studi...

im sorry... i misunderstood. you're saying that you heard no difference, right? it was a total dumb ass thing on my part of not knowing what the word NULL means. now i know! lol. interesting. i'd like to hear that interface myself sometime. i've heard sooooo many interfaces, but yet to check out tha...

I recorded the SPDIF output from my $39 DVD player into Pro Tools using a bog standard yellow RCA a/v video cable (the ones that come with the white/red RCA audio cables). I clocked to the SPDIF signal from the DVD player. The result was a complete and total null against the original wav file rippe...

I was under the impression that some people like the sound of jitter. Makes it sound more analog by introducing a bit of randomness. with clocking you want it to be smooth smooth smoother smooth and yet smoother still. just like how tape is. smooth as silk. even if a tape machine has a motor that v...

thanks man. this has not been the best of weeks for me.
