I am in processing of deciding to buy an Alesis HD24XR with fireport interface.
My sole purpose of this unit is to Multitrack a band from gig to gig mostly from analog boards with front of board room mics with a mic preamp/ and or A/D at either 24/48, or 24/96. I then would import these audio files into my home PC and use Nuendo for editing.
Is there any major issues with unit verses the standard HD24? I would prefer the 24/96 cababilities since my room mics can use an external 24/96 A/D converter.
What are the real advantages of the HD24XR over the HD24? Reviews tend to rate the HD24 better than the HD24XR on the internet.
My other question is while using the ADAT inputs of the unit. If I am only using only a stereo pair at 24/96 (4 channels via ADAT connection), are the other analog channels able to be used for the 10 channels for 24/96 recording?
Since the HD24XR has the analog 24/96 upgrade, are youa ble to record more then 12 channels at 24/96 via analog connections?
Any help would be appreciated.
I was comparing this unit to the fotex HD2424LV but appears the fostex has some file transferring issues because of FAT16 formatting. Is the Alesis ADAT HD24XR superior to the Fostex DVDV24LV?
