Synthetic,
Have you tried the Griffin PowerWave? Looks like the EMI 2|6 but costs less. Cheers DJ Anton |

nope... never seen that one... i would be cautious though... Griffin made the imic thing and I heard a few complaints about it and quality but it was only $40... sometimes I think you get what you pay for... but not always
 heck... I noticed that there are a few members that are using solely their mic input on their computer which to my amazement can work but I don't think quality is as good due to signal levels and such. I am a big fan of Crystal Method's Tweekend for its sound quality as much as the music... its got great dynamics and clarity. To get that sound... a person has to get the best signal possible into the 24bit audio 44.1khz format (CM used 16bit on first cd and then realized the difference when working in 24bit and thus new cd is 24bit according to Remix mag) and it helps to use qood quality analog to digital input devices... so I tend to look for quality first then price

Synthetic,
Thanks for the advice. Although I do not own a Crystal Method album, I am a real breaks lover - I DJ nuschoolbreaks and techouse around Chicago. My current CD recorder (Pioneer) is OK at converting from analogue to digital, but the recordings are straight to CD and therefore only 16 bit. Like many music nerds, I want better sound. So hopefully I can rig up my computer to do this and forget the CD recorder, although it is nice to have a stand alone machine with all the right controls and connections designed for recording sound. Cheers Karl |
