Okay one more question....so for example...the Edirol UA5 can be used for mic power, gain, and ADC?
That's correct. Make sure you read the UA5 FAQ in the Knowledge Base | Archive | Pre/ADC/Processor forum!
Okay...so the UA5 has a ton of features to it and it obviously saves money, but do people sell them a lot, because it says they are discontinued...correct?
Tapers here use the OADE Brothers Digimod ones a lot,*the digimod basically allows you to use it as a stand alone device, no pc necessary. The OADES quit selling them but if you have an oade one they will still mod it. There are 4 mods, the warm, transparent and presence, and a plus mod. They all color the sound a little different. the oade ones are becoming more sought after here cuz they arent sold anymore and they are great machines.

So should i just wait until someone is selling the OADE brothers digimod ones?
depends. if you are going to be using it with a lappie, you dont need an oade one. There are folks here who digmod(to allow stand alone use) but they dont mod them with the presence warm or transparent mods. the digiimod itself is pretty easy.
There is one for sale in the yard sale section i believe. people love them, so i doubt youll see too many comin through for sale that are oades.
if you want buy one and im sure someone will digimod it for you .
there is also a DIY method that is pretty easy. i think its in the archive section/?right skalinder?
