I'm always amazed that more newbs like me aren't prepared to do this for themselves but will run out spend hard earned cash on stuff because of what some guy on the web said. Strange world we live in!
Oh, I don't intend to spend my hard earned cash on converters. And my point was I wasn't sure it was necessary to splurge on the summing box but rather continue to rely on bouncing down in the box via Ozone, McDSP, etc. But you raise a very good point. How does it sound on your gear. Not the technical and intellectual back n' forth between cats on boards with Ph.Ds and/or better equipment than I'll ever get to play on let alone own.

No, the motto I've tried to stick by regarding indecent expenditures of my family's discretionary income is, "It's the chain, stoopid." In other words, I'd much rather spend $3,500 on an API 7600 and a JJ/Joly mod'd mic than on Apogee or Lynx. Thanks again for you insight and real world experiences.
