From my experience, the signiature sound of a sampler does not disappear even when going through a mediocre A/D converter. Sure, some colour will disappear and some colour will be added but it is
so subtle that it will not take away the character sound of the sampler (if the sampler has one...). I have recorderd the sp1200 through a Phonic Helixboard Firewire which does not have the best converters (although they are very decent). Yet, the things I like about the sp1200's sound did not go anywhere. And later my tracks will be converted to mp3's and (hopefully) end up in someone's cheap stereo, where the signal is again converted D/A, and the sp1200's sound will still be very recognizable.
Of course, better converters (like the RME FF) will do even more justice to the original sound.
