Later this year I'll be looking to upgrade either of those items. Because my needs have changed, I'm only interested in 2-track (or stereo) converters or preamps. I've no need to record a full band all-at-once in a large studio room.

The convo/preamp will be used for vocals, acoustic guitars, brass/woodwinds, etc.

I have a RME Fireface UFX as my interface.
The UFX AD DA converters have received excellent reviews.
Would like to know your opinions if I should spend the money to upgrade the converters.
I don't want to be spending $2,000 plus on a new converter unless it would produce a noticable change in sound quality.

Hi Guys,

I haven't been around much lately, fortunately, because I've actually been busy with projects.

I am working pre-production with an artist right now that is about to record a full album here at my studio and I am trying to figure if it is worth it to upgrade my converters for it. The album will be folk/southern rock stuff.

SOLD

RME ADI-8 QS $1200 USD each.

Beautiful converters that are top on my list. Choice for hybrid. These have the lowest latency I know. Combined with the RME PCIe AES 32, they are stellar.

Hi,my name is Angel.
I have small studio for mixing and mastering.
I was read so many of the post here and in gearslutz also from "audiokid"
I like all post,You share so many good things from your big experience.
And now I want to ask some question to help me in my work.

Folks-

I have been using the converters that come standard with my HD24 (I typically run 44.1k, using an external clock) for some time. No real complaints, but I am thinking of upgrading my converters.

I am looking for a single space unit (yes, this is a remote rig) that will do 16 or even 24 ch AD. Eight channels won't do it, as I typically run between 8 and 16 channels.

Hey RO,

Has anyone used these yet? There is some good reviews. They look great. I got my eye on the PCM4222 already?

Hi Everyone,

Quick question, when you are using Kontakt instruments in say Cubase, Logic etc when you convert/export the MIDI tracks to audio are you using the A/D D/A converters of the SoundCard to do this?

Thanks for your help!

Darren

Just curious if anyone has done the comparison between the sound quality of Pro Tools HD converters and a RME FireFace 800?

I'm buying a new converter and interface for my MixDream hybrid DAW system and a modest attempt in mastering that I call polishing at this point.
I need 16 IO and an interface. The Prism ADA-8RX or less expensive RME are in the running for me.
