Hi,

I was thinking of getting a second 01v however with all the fuss for 24/96 I was wondering whats out there? I'm not amzingly intereseted in doing stuff at 96KHz but I can really tell the difference between the 01v's 18bit A/D's and some 24bit ones. So 24bit is a must.

Yamaha have the new DM2000 coming out but Iheard that was gonna US$20,000 or so. I was thinking of something like the 02r about £2-2.5k ish with about 24 tracks of digital in/out to a PC (possibly mLan if that ever gets going) as the 01v's mic-preamps and 18bit A/d's are crap and its effecting my guitar tone I'm sure. When i compare to a true 24bit setup.

Also I can run my home cinema/ surround films stuff through it as well if its 24/96?

Am I mad and would a second 01v be fine (although that will only give me 16 digital in outs via ADAT and my RME hammerfall.

Plus I am definetly getting a MPC4000 as I am addicted to my MPC2000 then MPC2000XL I just have to... As thats 24/96 plus all my PC software is 24/96 ok I could make the switch.....

Any thoughts?

Cheers
Stvy

Running 2 x 01v with adat lets you record 16 tracks simultaneosly. Will you ever need to record more than that at once ? It's not that much trouble changing which 01v channels go to the adat channels...

Playback is a different story, at least if you're using Cakewalk. You can play back any number of tracks throuh adat, because Cakewalk mixes those tracks that go to the same adat channel.

It's more likely that your computer will be the limiting factor here.

Hi,

No I use logic, but I tend to mix down the different tracks that are similar then put them on one ADAT channel and EQ/dynamic them on the 01v.

I could really do with more inputs (I am thinking of buying an Elektron Machine drum) into the mixer, I don't record that many tracks at once (only 3 three really is the most I've done at once.) It's all about mix down and the like. I know I could mix down in logic but I like doing it on the 01v. I'm mainly concerned at the 01v's poor A/D and D/A converters, and since 24/96 is the future thought that since I want to go 24bit I might as well go 24/96.

i heard the behringer track count was halved at 96KHz is that true? Also are Yamaha planning a £1-3000 24/96 mixer, sort of an 02r with 24/96 capability. with a nice 24 track digital I/o?

That sort of thing really?

Cheers

Steve

Sty, do you relly think you need 96Khz? unless you plan to bring stuff out on audio DVD´s, DTS, there´s not much point to it. Downsampling from 96 to 44.1Khz is going to do more damage to your signal than keeping it 44.1 from the begining, unless of course you plan to invest into samplerate converters which cost more than a good mixer. read up on the subject a bit, there is lot of info floating around.

cheers, M.

And doing 96khz ADAT I/O will halve the number of ADAT channels you can use.

the dynamics on the o1v may be the problem. use the wave RCL's in logic on the group you are sending to the adat interface. Are these electric guitar tracks? I thought the 01v had 20bit ad's at 48khz. This should be fine for any 16bit playback medium. Use a nice tube direct box on the input when recording. The dynamics on the o1v are very stale and unmusical. They are great for live use but not pre-mastering your mix.
