Re: [linux-audio-user] Linux music editor, less than 16-bit ?

I dunno, looks like it uses a lot of proprietary formats. I've made some great recordings with the M-Audio MicroTrack 24/94 digital recorder. http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/MicroTrack2496-main.html It sounds great, and mounts like any USB storage device, making file transfer trivial. It will record in MP3 format, but I've always used WAV, usually 44.1K/16bit so I don't have to convert before burning a CD, but have also done 96K/24bit. Both worked well, though I didn't think there was enough difference to justify the extra space used. I got a 2GB microdrive for it, which will record 3h22m @ 16/44 and 1h33m at 24/96, so there's plenty of time available. For shows I've recorded where I've needed more time, I just fire up the thinkpad, download the files so far, wipe the disk and begin again.
