with what are you recording? metering no good on your deck?
mytek is a/d only, yes. very small.
metering isn't superb on the mytek, but that's the absolute last thing i considered when buying one. i just wanted something smaller that didn't comprise the quality of my larger stuff. to my surprise, the more compact alternative may actually sound better!
you won't get customer service from mytek out-of-the-box, that's for sure. though i haven't need to pay a visit, the fact that i live around the corner from their HQ was a consideration in buying.
surely scott will chime in at some point; he's likely better qualified than i to comment as he's run it more frequently. i have rather critical ears (i am, after all, engaged in an unwritten exclusivity agreement with DPA), and think this little mytek box smokes.
