    Graphic Dynamics SF8

    I'm afraid I don't understand the help menu explanation re: the Graphic Dynamics plug. I'd like to increase the volume of a file--this will require the use of compression--so as to match the volume of other files. I'm uncertain as to how to use Ratio, Threshold, and Gain [plus Auto gain...

    SF Batch Converter Problem: Help!

    I just used the Batch Converter to dither a dozen files from 32 to 16 bit. Opening the files upon completion, I discover that the files no longer have any waveform. I'd say they've been erased completely but each one still shows a specific time and size in mb. a] What happened? b] Is there any...

    Benchmark DAC1 or Lucid DA9624?

    I've done a search and have noted that the DAC1 gets very high marks. I'm just curious to know how much difference [if any] there would be with the Lucid. Opinions appreciated.

    Please Help re: Source > DMP 2 Pre > Lucid AD 9624 > MAudio Audiophile 2496

    Try as I may, using the above setup to record vinyl [the source] to my hard drive is giving me a compressed squared-off waveform where louder passages slam up against an imaginary line.

    Lucid AD9624 + MAudio Micpreamp OR Aardvark Direct Pro for Vinyl Recording

    Am I correct in assuming that the converters in the Lucid are superior to those in the Direct Pro? Am I also correct in assuming the mic pres in the MAudio DMP3 are superior to those in the Direct Pro? If that's the case, am I going to hear any difference between the Lucid/MAudio combo [approx...

    For Stereo Analog Recording Is Dedicated A/D Converter or Soundcard Preferable?

    I want to record viny to my hard drive [I can monitor editing via my current MAudio 2496 digital out]. So my question is--in the $400-700 range--which will give me the most bang for the buck, a dedicated A/D or a card? Seems like I'd be paying for many unnecessary features [including unneeded...
