    S/PDIF, why?

    I did a search on HR and some Googling, but I still cannot figure why I could/should utilize S/PDIF on my interface for home recording. Not sure it matters, but I run Studio One for my DAW and I interface through a PreSonus 1818VSL. Anyway, I use USB for "real" audio and MIDI for, well, MIDI...

    GLS Audio ES-57 vs. Shure SM57 (on Guitar) Mic A/B Test - Video and WAV pics

    Hey guys - I often see the GLS Audio ES-57 cited as a "perfect SM57 clone" or cheaper alternative. I have been watching prices for a while and saw the ES-57 dip back down to $29.99 so I decided to pick one up to experiment with. First order of business was to A/B test the ES-57 against a...
