It's the built in eq and phase reverse buttons that did it for me Hyper

The great thing about stereo spring reverb * is that inverting one channel doesn't mess with mono compatibility cos it's all completely fukt anyway Grin



*at least I assume this is stereo or else I cannot imagine what the phase reverse does!

Bob, sorry for the delayed reply.....just try and listen to one of those boxes before you buy.

Or buy from somewhere that wont mind you sending it back if you're not happy with the sound of the conversion. It'll probably be fine, but just to be on the safe side....

For the money, that behringer is pretty good. (shock!)

Since you are not talking about tons of conversions though, even an ad/da unit with just average converters will likely provide net benefit with some choice h/w...
nice one ben Smile

i know people say the behringer is okay once you clock it with a good source. presumably the marian convertors (being newer) will be better anyway, and as they'll be clocking off the rme there shouldn't be any problems. you can return it to marian too, that's a good point Xyxthumbs

thanks! Smile

Just ripped the 12" (!!) spring tank out of my old 1970's H|H guitar amp Twisted

Have to do a bit of soldering etc, but it could be springtastic round here soon! Grin

EDIT:

Marian Adcon is on the way too... got to love Thomann - it is cheaper to buy it and 2 optical cables there than just the box from Marian themselves Roll Grin

Macc Wrote:The thing about the Fostex is that it is only 20-bit Neutral

I have 2 of those things that I use on my pc.

The only thing that uses Adat though is my akai s6000 and I don't have the the card for it so I've not used that side of it.

Stay away from the vc8's though,for modern times the sound quality is shit...just listen to any of my tunes & you'll hear how shitty the mixdowns/sound quality is.

That's nothing to do with me,it's all the fostex vc8's fault.

ok ok so i admit, for gay house they are probably ok, but for those of you making real music out there, you might find it lacking...

got a 12 in mixer with, erm, 2 inputs as a volume control at the mo....
Well the adcon is in, the spring reverb is here, and but for the fact I only have one euro>uk plug adaptor everything is looking rosy. I've integrated the bassstation filter as an insert and got my boss chorus pedal on a send - it sounds BAD Grin

Once that adaptor is in place tomorrow it's spring reverb central round here, I tell thee.
