most of the sound module are 16bit still..is there a point to tracking them with 24bit?

thanks!

Hi I have the following equip.

Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro
RNC Compressor
Shure SM58
Echo Gina 24/96
SB Live Plat 5.1
Pent 4 1.5 Ghz, 384 rdram, 80 gig (7200rpm).

OK, the word on the street is that the new 96k Pro Tools with new hardware and improved audio quality throughout the architecture and mix buses will be announced shortly...maybe February 2002. Or maybe I've been in the studio too much and haven't heard the latest.

So, studio owners and engineers, who is interested in this?

Since I bought the Tascam US-428 I have been eyeing that little yellow S/PDIF input. One of my synths (Motif 7) has S/PDIF out option should I choose to buy it. However, the synth also has 24 bit DACs, which sound great going into the 428.

hi. i've been having a problem lately with my c1000 condenser mics making a crackling kind of noise when i track straight to my hard drive. they don't do it normally. and when i set up a 57 to my hard drive i also won't get the crackling.

Hello all,

This is my first time here and I would very much apreciate a little feed back regarding the 96K Finalizer.

Firstly, let me say I am a Composer and own my own private studio that is operated just for myself.

I have never Mastered before, however my goel is to take all the 2,4 track cassete masters, 1/4 inch and 1/2 8 track masters for Finalizing to DAT.

Hello all, this is my first post, but I've reading here and there the last few days . You have a nice place here :-)

I'm going to be getting an A/D converter in the next week or so. I was going to get the Lucid 2496 but I found an 18-bit Mytek for less. I know the Mytek was really expensive back in the day, how would it compare to a new Lucid or Rosetta? Being 2496 compatible isn't all that important to me right now as I don't have any other gear that can handle it. Good sound is the only consideration.

Hey guys..

Can anyone answer me this? If yes, what kind of "protocol" is used for 96K on those MOTU Interfaces, those RME Multiface, and all the 96K converters around?
