That is not strange: By using the AC97 they get a completely(?) developed product with all the compatibility (= Lots of features and benefits for less cost). They just extend it with their own features by adding their emu10k1 on the board. > Huh. I > try to keep my volume down at those levels too and it does seem to make a > difference. I really think its some clipping happening because of the resampling... Sometimes (before my good devices) I mastered in 48kHz and all sounded well. Downsampling to 44.1kHz for CD gave me horrible high noise/distortion on rehearsal at the same volume which made me check the 48kHz material (which was okay). > Can you explain why we seem to have 2 "Master" sliders and 2 "Line-In" > sliders?

And of course the warranty-timespan is over and one input-preamp is broken again. So the first channel can only be used from the insert-point on. Where do you live and what do you want to pay for a (half- / third-) broken Tascam? I am not yet confident with the thought of selling it because the firepod in its rack is much harder to transport and doesn't allow for field-recordings just with the laptop. But maybe I lend/sell the tascam to a friend who plays guitar and might be interested in using linux (and a pc) as effect-stack...
