becky i am with you...i can't wait for dedicated 24/96 hard disk recorders to take all the software guessing-game/hardware f-ups out of the equation! of course, i'm sure these devices will have some flaws to start out with!!
i am about ready to just downgrade to dat, pick up a pre and a/d, and be done with the laptop!!! but i won't, because i am a slave to 24/48!!!
