I use my Hammerfall Light with an Alesis AI-3. It works very well,
although I think there are less expensive 8/8 converters out there now.
You have the same card Steve? What converters are you using?
Higher end I'd look at maybe a Hammerfall
Light (Digi9636) With an ADI-8
Pro maybe. Good sound. Please double check that the ADI-8 Pro stills
supports the full 8 channels at 96KHz. It has enough ADAT interfaces to
do this but I'm finding the web page lacking on this fact.
FWIW I'd go with a 96k capable card, eg. hammerfall light, and 48k
converters for now and upgrade to 96k later when the price comes down.
With decent 48k converters I've never had any shortage of high-end,
especially for live recordings.
I agree, but my new Pro Tools stuff jsut sounds a bit smoother, warmer,
more full when operating in 96K mode. Better clocking, for sure, but I
assume the extra samples can't hurt...
