Monitoring at 16bits
Forums
Hi!
I have seen some people commenting on it and I also do it during mastreing tasks along with an ADAT bridge/Tascam DA40 machine...
Do you guys monitor at 44k/16 bits so a :w: s to compensate for any minor losses, bass shrinking, anemic fades and so?
Hope to hear from ya!
Thanks

16 bit vs 24 bit
Forums
Just wanted to inform you guys that there's an intriguing debate going on over at homerecording.com on the issue of the benefits of 24 bit recording after dithering to 16 bit for CD. Perhaps the discussion should be brought here?

16bit trks to 24 for mixing: gain vs pain?
Forums
As a mixing assignment I'm presented with tracks recorded with a so-so 16 bit interface. They're not terrible, but of course they leave something to be desired.
What I'm asking is would it be benficial for me to convert them (internally via software) to 24 bit files, or perhaps just the stereo mix as a 24 bit file, before they ultimately get dithered back to 16?

I am posting this just to piss off Opus! :) (Sorry Gary, I couldn't resist!)
I just read a plausible explaination as to why recording at 96K has merit he may be full of it, but this is what he said:

02R 24 bit ADAT cards?
Forums
I am an 02R owner and am considering going to a 24 bit HD recorder using ADAT light pipe. However, the Yamaha ADAT card uses a proprietary Alesis optical chip that will only pass a 20 bit word length. Other than the expensive TC Electronic 02R Unit Y card (for which you're mostly paying for the plugin processors), are there any reliable 3rd party 24 bit ADAT cards out there?

Anyone using a Joemeek VCQ-1cs w/VC1QD 24bit card?
Forums
I have been searching for a "nicer" Mic Pre and compressor to use as a front end to the Digi 001. I would like to have a discrete solid state mic preamp with very little coloration to be used on a variety of source material. I have been very impressed by the FMR Audio RNC compressor and have heard a Mic Pre is in the works but I have no idea when that might be available.
24 bit 96khz vs 24 bit 48 khz (final round)
Forums
I have heard a lot of guys say the music being recorded today punk, rap, pop etc will not take advantage of 96 kHz sample rate.
I tried a few projects at 96k and things sounded better to me
but my machine was overloading.
Makes me want to build a super computer!
What do you guys think, is 96 khz worth it?
