ok, i am pretty sure louie (nolafishwater) has run a 16g card. he and buff both run pre's in front of there's.
Being 16 and 32GB card compatible would be great. I hope that it is. Not sure, but I'd think that a fairly fast card would be advisable, since writing to 4 channels simulateously is alot of data throughput.
I got a PM less than a week ago from Louie and at that point he still hadn't run the R-44 with the V3 out front yet. He did say that he's gonna run a test soon though.
Hey Focker, I assume you've gone out there to the archive and done some R-44 listening. The reason I say that is there are enough samples out there right now that you can I think form an opinion on the sound of the stock R-44. I personally think it sounds great. Frankly, that's what's kept me on the fence about this because I think that my DPAs would probably sound really nice through the stock R-44.
But like I said before I went through so much to finally get to a sound that I like that I'm hardly ready to ditch it now and commit to the R-44 without hearing samples with my particular setup first. Course, I'd ideally love to be able to say it doesn't matter at all for reasons I've already stated in a couple of earlier posts.
