I don't see a "lower grade" A/D converter to be a problem. I think it's more
important, given the return on investment, to put more money into the
tape decks, which really make a big difference, than the converters, which
have very small differences from one to another.

Just because the low end boys believe that there is no difference,
there is!

Sure there is. But how will that affect the outcome?

the library will not have the best digital resolution for their
archives and post production.


Hank offered the same advice from the same scenario.

And Hand is also a very practical guy. Given the choice of spending
money on a better tape deck or a better interface, he'd go for the better
tape deck too.

Hank sold his tape deck and use Metric Halo for his I/O's

If people were willing to buy tape I'd have kept it. If I didn't need to
carry a Studer-8-track-equivalent-in-a-box, I'd have kept it. Getting on
a plane in Reno and stepping off in Austin with a "studio" in a carry-on
is not doable with the A80! g
