Recommendations for a Analog to Digital Converter

Any suggestions on how to post-process DSD files?"

What type of processing are you talking about? Also, why DSD? I don't believe that it was mentioned up to this point.

Vinyl Studio will let you separate and tag tracks in DSD files. Beyond that, you need to convert to PCM to do other post-processing. There is professional software that will allow you to make corrections to DSD files and only converts to PCM in the area of the correction, but I do not believe there is any consumer level product that can do that. Editting DSD files is one of the major drawbacks of the format. If you want to do anything beyond track breaks and tagging you need to use PCM. I would love to be able to clean up DSD files. I just don't think you can do it at the consumer level.

Occasionally I've seen a 'Legacy' Metric Halo ULN-2 for sale at a decent price. It's a very good DAC as well.

The thing about the Tascam DA-3000, from what I've read, is that the amount of storage you can fit on an SD card is limited, and comes up pretty close to one side of a record (25 minutes when you record in DSD). I guess that is not an issue as long as you can get a record side on the chip. I'm glad to hear that Vinyl Studio allows breaking up tracks in DSD - that is what I was asking about.
