my mistake. I didn't realize that the iriver could record at 16bit / 96 kHz. The vast majority of 16 bit devices are limited to 44.1 or 48 kHz, and I assumed that the iriver was as well.
I thought that you needed the increased BW to support the higher frequency, and that limited the 16 bit recorders to 48khz. Does the Iriver also change the frequency of the recording appropriately? I have a Berringer Ultramatch that will take any signal and trunkate it to 16/44.1 I think, but it may be limited to 20bits since it is old. Also I remember reading the M1's would also take a 20 or 24bit signal. I will have to pull out and try. Just picked up an R44, but my taping partner has had it, and now it is my turn to play. Will let you know the results. BTW, is there any way to use the V3 as a dithering device in the post-production realm, or do you still have to buy wavelab to get the UV22HR plug in? Is there something better these days?
