Gentlemen:
I follow this list from the digest, so I could have
missed a critical
post. If
so, please point me to the thread.
I have two PCs I use almost exclusively for sound
editing (with ReZound
---
highly recommended for its crossfade ability). I
record classical music
on an
Alesis MasterLink at 96kHz/24 bits, so I have quite a
SN ratio to begin
with.
I need to edit the gaps between tracks where I want
to >preserve the
hall
ambience. Whether I use an RME Digi96 PAD or an
M-Audio Delta 44, the
signal
I get out of the sound editor is so low that I hear a
lot of hum and
other
extraneous noise by the time I crank my amplifier's
volume up enough to
hear
what is between the pieces. This noise is _not_ there
when I burn a
CD-R,
however.
I assume this means I need to send a digital signal
(preferably 96/24
and
lower) to an external DAC before sending the signal
to >my monitoring
system.
Would someone be kind enough to explain how to get a
signal out of a PC
that
is fully equivalent in S/N to the CD-Rs the computer
can burn?
You just have to get out a 16 bit 44,1khz signal, just
like on a cd. There is no use for you to have a 24/96
signal for monitoring and wondering all the time if it
would be the same on the CD... And I'm wondering if it
possible to get a 24/96 signal out with the RME...
If you wanna get digital out of the RME, you've got
nothing to do, just plug the little cable converter on
the sub-d connector ont the board, and play music, the
monitoring stream is copy on the digital out by the
board.
I don't know about the delta 44...
Bye
François
Many thanks,
John
