    Korg D-16 Drive Noise?

    Thanks, all. From what I understand, the D-16s are not made to the same standard. My dealer tried mine out with 2 others in his stock and they seemed to be noisy as well. But others, I know, can't hear a darn thing. As for running across the room, dont really need to do that. Just get a...

    Korg D-16 Drive Noise?

    Hullo, Is anyone out there having a problem recording in the sam room as the4 D-16 with condenser mics? According to 2 people I've spoken to they can't hear the drive noise even with headphones and mic on. Its just quite annoying because the clicking is also there when you play back, so you...

    D-16 Burners

    Sony CDR The D16 rules. So little space take, such high quality (though I'm using external mic preamps - dbx 386 and compressors - spl dynamaxx). Watch for the Sony CDR-W33 - it'll do most of the Masterlink stuff at 1/2 the price (about $750 list price) - shipping soon. The CDR-W66 is even...

    Burn to CDR or CD Recorder?

    Man am I green - so here's the question: Why burn to CD-R (I'm using a Korg D16) when you can use the SPDIF output from the Korg into an equivalent input in a standalone CD Recorder like the TASCAM CDR400? Help, please? New Fool (London)

    24bit cdr

    Aaaaarrrggh! I am so confused after reading all the posts. Please, please someone help me out before I tear my hair out. Does it mean that if I have a song on say a Korg D-16 (no I can't afford a Masterlink) in 24-bit and then wanted to press a CD of that song using a TASCAM CDRW700, the...

    Mastering and Burning CDs

    Hi y'all, I'm about to buy a digital multitrack but my ultimate aim is to master and burn my own CDs at home (to send out as demos) without (a) going to a mastering studio or (b) buying a mastering processor (like TC Finalizer). I'll probably be recording in 24 bit on a Korg D-16 or AKAI...

    VF16 finally seen and heard. IMPRESSIVE!

    Hate to say this, Tcnort, but I am 99.999% certain that the Boss Br-8 is NOT a 24-bit recorder, but only 16-bit. To me, anyway, 24 bit recorders sound "smoother", almost as if your brain doesn't have to work as hard to fill in all the "gaps" left in the sound wave of a 16-bit recorder. But no...

    VF-16: S/PDIF May Be THE Answer!

    Ranchfield, www.ktjmusic.com has the VF-16 for $999.99 - don't know if shipping is extra. you have to e-mail them and you get an instant reply for the price. Other stuff in that site seems decently priced also. http://www.ktjmusic.com/cgi-bin/quikstore.cgi?category=fostex&keywords=VF16 NF

    VF-16: SCSI out to Computer, Yes or No?

    All this talk is making me think I shoud just get a Roland VS 890 or 1880 and Master and burn the CDs from the burner. IT may be more expensive but at least I won't have to worry so much about Zips and Jazs and compatability etc etc etc.

    SCSI

    Sill question, probably, but if a digital recorder has an SCSI capability, does that mean that I'll be able to burn my own CDs from that recorder straight (leaving out mastering questions etc)? Thanks!

    DA/AD Converters

    If I'm using a 16-bit multitrack recorders which has 20 or 24 bit DA/AD converters, is that a good thing? i.e. Why should that matter since the recording is going to be 16 bit in any case? HelP, please!

    24 bit effects, 16 bit Recording

    Thanks ya'll - yes I read digidoo before posting the question - digidoo explained dithering very well, but I was kinda wondering about the processing bit - the last paragraph of pglewis' reply answers my question completely. What a wonderful messgae board! Its my first time on. Thanks again.

    24 bit effects, 16 bit Recording

    I more or less understand the dithering thing about transferring a 24 bit recording to a 16 bit CD recorder or DAT - my question is: Since your recording e.g. on the new Fostex VF16, is going to be 16 bit, is it such a big deal that the effects are 24 bit? Presumably the problem will still...
