And that is: Is it worth it to upgrade from 16 bit to 24 bit?
1) Will I hear the difference?
I have the M-Audio MobilePre which only records 16 bit. I am thinking of the same interface with 24bit capability.
And this is what I would like
- 24-bit
- 2 microphone inputs (XLR balanced) with 48v phantom power
- 2 high-impedance instrument/line inputs (balanced/unbalanced 1/4” TRS)
- 2 mono line outputs (1/4”)
- stereo line output (1/8”)
- stereo headphone output with level control knob
- gain control knob for each input channel (+40 dB max)
- USB-powered (No Firewire)
2) If it is worth it then What do you recommend? So far I am thinking of:
- Alesis IO2
- Tascam 122L or 144
What other interfaces with these capabilities do you recommned in the $150 budget.
