thanks for all the info PMoshay.

some questions:

is it possible to send a DSD file to an ME so he can import it to whatever DSD machine he has, or does the file have to be played back on the MR-1000?

any way to use other DSD converters with the MR-1000? i don't think so but just to make sure. haven't heard the Tascam DVRA 1000 yet, but here on GS some have said it sounds very close to the original source but not identical. you say it sounds identical on the Korg, so it seems the audio path is better quality. have you heard the Tascam box and what are you impressions?

and does the MR-1 have the same quality audio path and converters as the MR-1000?

also, have you tried recording to DSD and converting to PCM, then recording direct to PCM and compared? any audible differences?

if these have already been answered i apologize. thank you in advance.
