The Traveler can be either pre-configured using a computer to set up sample/bit rates, routing, etc or you can do the configurations from the front panel (it's faster to use a computer though). Then the signal can be routed to a feed via S/PDIF or Optical out to a DAT or JB3. You can run the Traveler off 12-volt and control levels from the front panel. I still haven't tried running the unit off battery power (just too easy to run it off the lappy when you've got AC available )
I haven't had the opportunity to experiment with preamps yet. Lots of things to try; and I just haven't had the time to systematically test things out. My main goal has been to be able to have a stable, consistent environment where I can run 24/96 multichannel without being overly paranoid that I'm going to have a system lockup at inopportune times....and that I definitely now have. I do think that the recordings I've done thusfar could be improved with a decent preamp on the front end...especially the ADK's. I have some tag-teaming coming up soon and I should have the opportunity to experiment more then.
+ T. Thanks a bunch for the info. I think I may sell my warm-mod ua-5 and get one of these instead.
