Multitracker (24-Bit) Conversion & Drive Formatting?

People,

Looking at two 24-Bit Multitrackers (for expanding my studio operation to include location recording)...the Tascam 2488 & the Korg D1600.

Of these two units, does anyone know the mfg./model# of the onboard ADC ...or, more importantly...how the conversion/recording quality compares between the two?

ADAT-AES/EBU-TDIF >>What is the best FORMAT?

Hi everyone,

Just want to know what is more professional from the following format's :-
For example if i want to buy Yamaha DM200096 v2 to connect it to the Rosetta 800 or the pro tools HD 192 I/O .. In general what is the best format from the following :-
1-ADAT
2-AES/EBU
3-TDIF (Tascam).

Thanks

How many machines & formats do you record to at a gig?

...For me, the basic setup is:

CDR recorder (for the client CD that day)

DAT (2 trk safety- a clone of the signal the CD gets)

multitrack 24 bit HD (each mic on it's track, plus 'hot' and 'safe-level' 2 trk mixes)

Pyramix PC if I know there will be post work,(same signals as the 24bit HD).
