Just realized something about my Kurzweil synth's specs that I forgot about. So, here's my question people:

Which would be better sound quality for recording?

Recording my Kurzweil synth through its Digital Out to S/PDIF, but at only 16 bit @ 48,000 since that is the best that the Kurzweil has when they made it a few years ago,

or

Recording Analog out of the Kurzweil at 24 bit @ 96,000 into my sound card?

In the last few days, I have learned that in order to record S/PDIF to S/PDIF, both devices need to speak the same speed (language) in order to LOCK UP.

Not that it should matter, but I'm using the PCI Audiophile 2496 with Sonar.

which one sounds better to you?

I agree completely...

Lots of people on this board seem to be concerned with the 'right' way to do everything. Once you know your gear well enough to get it working and making music you should also know it well enough to experiment with it and trust your ears to interpret the results.
