audio conversion

Noone heard the rme converters?

The RME are generally decent enough converters pretty much in the middle of the pack in terms of sound quality. They offer very good bang for buck but I personally would never use them for mastering tasks.

Converters generally used by mastering studios include products by Lavry, Mytek, Benchmark, Apogee for the most part - with many studios also using stuff by Cranesong, Weiss, dcs, Prism, Universal Audio, Meitner, Genex and others.

the thing is :

do you really hear a big difference between RME converters and "big and expensive brand = good for mastering" ones on a blind test?

Yes.

RME converters are fine but can't compare them with Lavry, Prism, DCS and so on.
These are stellar and so is the price....
There's absolutely nothing wrong with RME converters.
