External Audio Interface For 16-bit 8khz Recording

hello everyone!

does anyone know an external audio interface capable of recording at 16-bit and 8khz??? or is it just a software problem which prevents me from doing so? e.g. on a PC with standard soundcard running cooledit I can record at any rate with acceptable quality results (for telecommunication services). Recording on a mac at 16-bit and 44.1 khz and resampling afterwards to 8khz is no alternative...

Please help!

Harddisc-recording At 8 Khz On Imac???

Hello everyone,

I urgently need help with my iMac 400 DV SE: I'd like to record speech with a normal mic (and a PlainTalk Converter) on my iMac 400 DV SE at 8 kHz but every software I use (Cubase, SoundStudio, Peak...) says that I can't record at this sample rate.

To record at a higher rate and to sample it down afterwards is no solution because of insufficient quality compared to directly recording at 8 kHz.

Neither recording at 8 kHz with e.g. CoolEdit using VPC (and using the same inbuilt A/D converter!!) is a working solution because there are skips while recording.

I'd be very happy to solve this problem soon

PS: I need the files at this low rate for telecommunication services
