Without venturing into a cable war, I can assure you that you don't need to buy Monster brand XLR cables for this task. Any reasonably well-built cable will be fine. But...with respect to my recommendations on that site: per Hugh's comment a few posts back I looked to see if some of the cheaper units support a 44.1khz sample rate and many of them DON'T (including the Tascam us-122). However, it appears this unit does, so maybe this is the best bet amongst the cheap units: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/LinkUSB/ I've never used it so I don't want to highly recommend it, but it has Mackie-designed preamps (Mackie's a decent name in mid-level pro-audio) and supports the required sample rate. I haven't spent a ton of time researching this so there could be other, even better choices out there that I'm missing so I'd spend a little time looking before jumping in. -- azinck3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ azinck3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3967 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=24519 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
