I was looking into the power supply situation with my DAW and was wondering what viable options exist out there. Currently, I am using an internal 600w pc power and cooling unit. Apparently there arent many out there. One I found wa...

[quote user="item"]Let's just be grateful things have moved on from those nasty plastic discs . . . in an ideal world I like to call the future, we would download our files from the mixing desk direct to our highly optimised audio computers/streamers...

[quote user="Telstar"] Because those 20 bit were true 20 bits No, it won't do true 24 bit ladder, according to the specs on their website. Nonetheless it can be good. At least it is sure that it will accept 24/174.6 format. But I I'm pretty sure that...

[quote user="Telstar"] Oh I was thinking about FLAC, such as the ones from Linn Records, not raw WAVE files. [/quote]
I use only WAVE64 (.w64) files,

[quote user="item"]Part of the reason we call our computers 'transports' is to encourage people to think of the number-crunching part of an audio system in the same already familiar terms as a CD player - because all the same things matter: CD tr...

I added another 1T drive to my DAW (the 88/24 fills space fast) and I came to an interesting problem.
I have a few drives to store the recordings on my DAW: orchestral drive, chamber drive, instrumental drive, opera drive, recording drive. I store ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Oxric, I have no idea what your “literature” was all about. If the Item’s company does not name thier read-only DAWs as “transport” it would be no conversation at all. For sure the analog PS for PS that they do is very inte...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]OK, I will look in that firewire thing sometimes, I know little about it as now. Is quality of firewire controller important? Can I use my on-board firewire? Regarding the onboard audio disabled in bios – nope, I did not do...

I admit that I had some interest to begin with when the Berkeley DAC was announced. I was told a year before Berkeley become available that thus guys are working on something new and I felt that whatever this team produces is worth to pay attention. ...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Having said that, I notice no difference when switching to battery when using a laptop model to run the external drive of my music server setup, but this is possibly because power may be routed "through" the battery even w...

More forgotten reasons came to me why I do not use Samplitude. The Samplitude has very simplistic scheduler that, if I remember correctly, does not allow scheduling recording next day. Also, and it was the absolute deal breaking for me, Samplitude do...

God, I having fun like at “old time”! Woke up at 4am today, was not able to sleep. Turned the playback, cleaned the room and set the DAW to stream the Bayreuth festival 2017. The ABC is broadcasting tonight the August 3 live recording of Götterdämmer...

I never thought that it is so painful: to have a playback and no front-end thatcan drive my amps. Thankfully the Placette is coming back now with the whole 12 channels and the tape loop. I have some ideas how to chance the connections across the who...

Dima for instance (and he has quite high expertise in the subject) claims that there no true 24bit converters available anyhow. BTW, with all advances of HDCD, that I fully appreciate, it makes send only on 16 bit. At 20...

I do not know what you are trying to do, why do you need the Lynx card, why is need to be modified and what does it mean “powered individually”, the people looks like sell power supply and they push the notion of individual power but no one said that...

I guess you didnt have a chance to listen to the station broadcasting from the Met while in New York? Perhaps it is different. I get met broadcasts on satellite radio and the quality is horrendous but I guess thats a different story. Frankly, I...

Romy,I don't understand all hype around the Tidal service, like a saint graal or something, since it's not new at all (high resolution audio streaming). There are Qobuz (also a store) doing that for a few years. Most of the titles from them seems to ...
