Title: new soundcard suggestions?
Post by: highwayjill on June 24, 2004, 08:27:57 PM

time for a new (good) soundcard, something in the 100 - 150 range.  I"m using a D8 with a prodigital 7 pin cable for transfers right now... any suggestions?

FWIW  I just got an echo mia (the non MIDI version) off ebay for 120.  I like it so far and have had no problems with it.  Easy as pie to use.  I have yet to check the ADC in it, but 24/96 through the DAC to headphones sonds pretty sweet.
