USBpre, that thing is the shit

you like it schwilly?
i fuckin love mine, it sounds really good and it's so nice having one box to handle everything!  plus it's powered off usb bus so i don't have to tote around a bunch of lead acid batts, although i did have to get the n-charge for my lappy.

further details on the story...i got the backup from the dat guy, have listened to part of it and after normalizing to bring levels up to match my 2nd half, it sounds fine...there are however some diginoise spots on his recording (his m1 is dying) that i think i can get rid of safely...if i am able to recover this recording i will send out freebies to people in celebration!
plus kaki king (the opener) was the shit and she is a little cutie!

+T for the effort Simp!!! My Chicago Gordon got f-ed up too....see the 24/96 failure thread.  Perhaps we need some software that is idiot proof?!  At least something that doesn't have a file size limit, and some sort of pre/ad device with a firewire out.  Oh well it can only get better!!

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!!!
