Next DAW

Hello,

I'm just about ready to upgrade to a second, more current DAW. Any thoughts on dual processor vs a single 1.7 or higher CPU ? DDR Ram ? Any particular motherboards hot @ the moment?

I will be building a Nuendo system (which specifically mentions dual processor) and want to run VST insts. and plugs as smoothly as possible.

How good are the converters in the Layla 20

Greetings:

I have a couple of questions and from the few posts I have read I am sure I will get some assistance here.

How good are the converters in the Layla 20? Ate they as good as th ones in the Yam aw4416? I know that one is 20 bite 128 x oversampled and the other 24 bits 64 x oversampled. Does the oversampled spec make a major difference...

Thoughts on M80 or Precision 8

I recently purchased an M80 mic preamp but have not yet received it. What should I expect? this is a used unit with the "Jensen" transformers. Is this a pretty good pre for general purpose. I'm tracking through my D8B right now. Will it be much of an improvement? I also ordered an RME AD8 Pro to use as converters. I would also like some feedback on True Systems Precison 8.

Lucid A/D9624 and 2408 S/PDIF noise

Hi Guys: I can't figure this one out. Please help me. My set up is: d8b,lucid genx6,lucid A/D9624, and a 2408. My problem: I'm getting noise on the left side of the S/PDIF input on the 2408(S/PDIF 1). Spdif 2 works perfectly. It's not the A/D9624. I can take the S/PDIF out of the 9624 and go to a DAT and it's clean. I can also take the AES/EBU out and that is clean.
