is nev 1073 building suitable?

i wan to build a channel Neve 1073 with eq,
some my friend say that is no suitable because the real Neve sound is incomparable.
my questio is:
mounting the original transformers by carnhill,
the other components are consumer,why the sound will be incomparable?
there are a lot of constructors that sell this module.

thank you

Striping SMPTE to DAW?

Quick question. (damn, I'm full of alliteration today)

My Ghost desk reads SMPTE and can automate mutes for a mix. A have used this feature before when tracking to tape in order to both sync the computer and do the mutes. I suddenly thought: why couldn't I strip code to a track in the computer when not hotting tape, and fire the mute automation with that?

stick it in, firewire or usb

so i went with the Tascam us122 for my laptop audio needs. for now it should be enough. now i am getting conflicting stories on external storage. i use my laptop for video capture and editing as well as location audio recording. should i go with a usb 2.0 drive or firewire? if i get the firewire i will have to get a firewire card because i only have one port which i use for video capture.
