I know, I kind of thought the same thing. What $650? Are they insaine? But then I went on to read that the Mike Preamps are thoughs of the 744-T recorder which is $4000. So, I imagin that everything else sounds just as good. Like I said, go to www.blindcooltech.com and listen to Neal Ewers's Pod cast on the Zoom H4N recorder. Fast forward to the part where he's trying ourt the Rode NT1-A microphone. He first tries it out on the Zoom, and then he uses the 744-T. You'll hear what this card sounds like at that point. If what Sound Devices says is right which I should think it is, because like I said before, the Preamps are the same ones as the ones in that recorder. Trust me, if I had the $650 on me at this moment, I'ed be calling Sweet Water and buying one. Pluss, it's totally accessible. It's just plug in and play. No software needed. Only the ASIO driver if you want to use it at it's full 192 KHZ 24 Bit quality. That's it. Every thing else has switches on the back. You can even use it stand alone to use it on something like an Ipad Itouch, or an Iphone. How do you like that one? -----Original Message----- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Dave Bahr Sent: Saturday, October 01, 2011 1:44 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: two questions about sound cards.
yeah that's the one I have, I did a conversion project of about 200 records over the summer for an audio archive and that card, the sb x-fi 5.1 pro external usb card, worked fantastically. I'm curious about this other 650 dollar card though, really? 650 dollars? That seems rather outlandish, unless it comes with its own rack setup or soemthing.
