A/D Converter/Mackie ONYX Questions

I am looking to get a better A/D interface; I currently have the M-Audio OMNI Rack. I would really like to get the Apogee AD-16X! What are some converters that are a notch below the Apogee converters-MOTU, RME, etc? I have gotten suggestions to check out the RME stuff because of the quality to price factor of their products.

US-224 A/D converter question

Hi all. I bought a used US-224 for a few bucks just to give it a whirl and it seems pretty cool. It has 24 bit A/D converters (64 times oversampling), but I'm not sure of the quality (I'm guessing not very high because you can find these things for less than $130). I'm wondering if I get a decent preamp to stick in front of the US-224 if it will make much of a difference in sound quality?

A/D quality of VX Pocket vs M-Audio Flying Cow?

Hi, haven't been here in ages. Everythings changed!

I am putting together a budget laptop DAW with a vx pocket card for location recordings.

Does anyone have any opinions on the quality of A to D conversion on the vx pocket versus that of the M audio Flying cow & flying calf A/D converters (they are budget boxes)?

Focusrite ISA428 A/D (and instrument DI) vs. RME 8 io (&

Hola,

This is a multi-part question (as usual). Thanks for your patience.

I currently have an RME/Nuendo 8 i/o interface (48khz) going into a 002rack. I also use a Universal audio 2108 pre and I have 2 Avalon U5 DI's that I use for keyboards, Rhodes piano, and bass guitar.
