Korg tascam etc. recorders any comments?


Anyone has experience with these(korg mr 1000, tascam dv-ra1000) recording from vinyl to digital?
Looking to capture as close to what vinyl is bringing to the room.

The best way to do it is with the Korg or Tascam and then do any editing on a workstation. Any A to D conversion done in a PC or laptop is going to be a sonic compromise.

Ony exception would be a Mac based Rosetta 200 system where the A to D conversion is done outside of the computer box. Keep in mind, 24/192 is going to take up a lot of HD space, and is not really worth the effort unless you are using an external master clock like the Big Ben or Antelope Audio Atomic clock....

That is the big question- who is going to come out with the software which will send pure DSD over USB? Korg's Audiogate, Foobar, Pyramax, Sonoma.....?

Both Mytek and PB Design have mentioned their ability to decode the signal, but neither one have said which software will execute it.

It's a waiting game...and I do hope it gives us some direction soon.
