I need some advice about a digital converter.
I record classical music, mainly with a stereo setup, never using
multitracking.
I've just had the occasion to buy a used Millenia HV-3B to use with mics
(Schoeps and Neumann).
At the moment I usually record on a dat machine (SONY) and on a cd recorder
(Tascam), using my Prism AD 124
Since I'm going to use a Tascam DV-RA 1000 (that record on dvd in wav format
at 24/192 ) I'm thinking about changing my d/a converter, becaus my prism
can convert only at 24/48
I can't affor at the moment a new Prism a/d 2, so I'm wondering if something
like a RME ADI2 can help me to improve the general sound of my recordings or
it's better my 'old' prism, recording at 24/48.
Extra high sampling rates will recreate frequencies you can't hear.
Is that something you need ?
For LP transcription it can be, since those frequencies contain noise
that help declicking algorithms key on the exact width of an impulse.
For live recording, I think the jury is still out on whether ultrasonic
reproduction helps any. It clearly doesn't help a whole lot if any.
