Professional Grade Sound Card?
Hi,
Does anyone know of a professional grade sound card for PCI, PCI-X, the kind of thing you'd find in a top recording studio? No fancy features, just good A/D converters and a clean signal path. About ten years ago, pro cards were only available for Mac, I don't know if this has changed? -- Gerry_uk |

Well, in a "top" recording studio, the PC would just serve as the control/interface to the good stuff; rackmount or discrete equipment rather than PC sound cards. But here are some brands that offer audiophile grade and professional recording sound cards: M-Audio http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=...=pciinterfaces Lynx Studio http://www.lynxstudio.com/products.html EMU http://www.emu.com/products/welcome.asp?category=505 Digigram http://www.digigram.com/products/by_category.htm RME http://www.rme-audio.com/english/soundcds.htm AudioTrak (prosumer rather than professional) http://www.audiotrak.net/ Regards, Tim |
