sorry, -I know its kind of an old hat already but I`m still not Shure about these RME converters

are they really cool? (means better or equal to 888)

I`ve got a Rosetta (trough ADAT Bridge PT and Clock of Rosetta) I use on vocals and a lot of other stuff but now a need something for drums (more channels) and I used some 888 (not mine) till now - they are not great but o.k

I see a lot of posts from folks who hate the stock Pro Tools converters. I've seen Pro Tools used in our C room for years without anyone bringing in any converters or anything. Most just go from SSL through some vintage comps or 2" right into Pro Tools w/ (3) 888/24. They keep it on PT and mix w/ direct outs to the SSL to 1/2". Sounds great.

Anyone with experience of dCS converters? They often come tops in opinion polls. Is it the sound quality, build, versatility or a combination of these attributes? Looking more into the technicalities the internal program with flash- memory can be easily updated over the web making them fairly future proof. Opinions welcomed.

Has anyone compared the A/D section of the L2 against the A/D section of the PSX-100, if so, which is better?

Please, just the two mentioned!

Thanks in advance.

For the sake of debate, I know it starts with tuning, player, placement, etc. The focus of this thread is 100% drums in banks of 8. Budget is negotiable, but lets assume you have $10,000 total. Do you keep some money, or spend it?

Which A/D converters with 8 or more channels are out right now? Which one do you guys recomend? I know about the:
- Alesis AI-3 ($400) - this one might suck :)

Hi,

I wonder if anyone ever checked any ofg the Kronauer AD/DA Converters. 16 channels 24/48 of them sell for about 1000$ which is prttey darn cheap, but how do they sound?

Thanks for your input,

Hi all,

Just wanted to get some opinions of Euphonix users about those 24/96 converters, especially the ADC-to-MADI version...how do they cut soundwise in comparaison to Apogee's or RME-ADI-96?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers

Im just starting to acquire some high-end gear in my Project Studio. Im slowly weeding out the names like Alesis and Mackie, and Replacing them with names like Pro-tools and Focustrite. . Anyways. One thing Im not sure of is my D/A Converters. At the moment Im running Pro-tools Le (the digi 001) set up. If I buy a stand alone D/A converter, will I notice a different.
