I'm very intrigued by the RNC and the RNLA, but I'm wondering if using outboard gear with some of the interfaces I'm considering (specifically, the Delta 44/66 or Delta 1010, Echo Layla, Emu 1212M or 1820M, or the LynxONE) is a good idea or if it will yield good (or even useable) results.
I know there is a post circulating about whether or not to use compression when tracking, so now I'm wondering if I can use an outboard compressor after recording to a PC with one of the above interfaces. I know plug-ins allow you to keep everything in the box, but is this a viable option? Or would the audio be degraded to much by having to go through the conversion a second time? Is there an affordable interface out there that might be better suited for this type of function?
Is there anyone out there who is using an RNC or RNLA in a PC based system? And if so, how are you using it - during tracking, or after the tracks have been recorded?
