    Pres in Aardvark Pro 24/96 vs Di-Port

    And yet another question related to the Di-Port It is capable of 24-bit, but my Soundblaster Live! card only supports 16-bit. How would this work? Would I have to change the Di-Port to work at 16-bit? Would a soundcard that supported 24-bit be required down the line? If so, it may make sense to...

    Pres in Aardvark Pro 24/96 vs Di-Port

    I've been doing some digging on the Di-Port around here and rec.audio.pro and it seems that the preamps are really very good. Does anyone know how these pres compare with those in the Aardvark Pro 24/96? There doesn't seem to be as much info on the board so I thought I'd ask directly. Any other...

    Folio Spirit Notepad - any good?

    Re: Re: Folio Spirit Notepad - any good? I've done some reading on the Di-Port as you suggested christiaan and there are indeed some happy users on board. It seems to have some very good preamps inside and is a good digital <> analogue converter too. Its only downside for me is that it only...

    Mic for Acoustic Guitar & Vocals

    Just done some research on the Studio Projects B3 mic and it seems to score highly. Pricewise I've found one for GBP 106.99 including shipping so it's within my budget. Could someone perhaps explain what would be the advantages of having the three different polar positions? I wonder how it...

    Mic for Acoustic Guitar & Vocals

    Recording to PC: what to buy first?

    Chris: what would the benefits be of a dedicated preamp over a mixer with built in preamps? I'm working to a budget here, but I guess taking my time and getting the right gear would future-proof and save in the long run. The M-Audio Audio Buddy is in the same price area as the Behringer MX802a...
