Hello everyone. Here's my story. I recently purchased a new computer and upon receiving it realized that the pci slot for the soundcard will no longer work with my soundcard because the card is too big for the slot. SO...I'm looking into an alternative solution to doing recording, as I customized the computer with all the crap I would need to do high speed recording (i.e. gig of ram, pentium 4 3-gig processor, 250GB hard drive etc.)
Here are my needs/what I would hope to accomplish:
*Be able to multitrack up to 4 (or more) tracks on seperate tracks in Adobe Audition
*Need phantom power to power condensors
*Don't necessarily need line inputs as I don't do much direct but would like the option
*Needs to externally hook into the computer as most pci slots are unavailable
*24-bit/96kHz processing
*Need Mic pre's or otherwise ability to run from mixer into the unit, however the former is the preferred option.
*Ability to monitor input as well as output from the computer for mixing purposes through headphones and in the future, monitor speakers
*Willing to spend between $200 - $400
*I'm running Windows XP and Adobe Audition 1.5
I'm currently looking at the Lexicon Omega as my primary option but I was wondering if anyone had any input on the subject as to how well this product performs or of any superior alternatives. I'm willing to entertain any options within reason. Any and all help, suggestions and comments are GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.
