Things we've been told that suck.

Hi Tchad,

What emphasis do you place on converters when working on a project?

Thanks

In addition, there are constant questions and opinions on converters on this board. What emphasis do you place on converters when working on a project?

Thanks

When light from candles got replaced by electicitrickery and bulbs, some said it sucked, when recording music went from mono to stereo some said it sucked, when it went from 4trk to 8 to 16 to 24, what did they say?
I just say it's different. It is. No doubt about it. Better....worse???? I can't tell you but it sounds bloody great to me now and it's only going to get better.
Convienience and economy are also extremely valid factors and two more reasons I don't agree with the sucking hypothosis.
Converters- I have an Apogee Trak 2 that I think sounds great. It's been at the front end of SADiE for several years now. I love it.
When using PT's I use the 192 converters. They sound really good to me.
If it's not broke.........
