Morgan Post Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 Looking for a portable A/D converter that has L/R RCA, 1/4", XLR stereo inputs and TOSLINK & SP/DIF outputs. Does Apogee still make the AD-1000? Any recommendations? Will this give a better quality recording if I am inputting with an optical input rather than the analog input on my MD? I use it for doing live room records. Thanks, Morgan Post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllanH Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 Denecke AD-20 is a preamp/ADC combined. 2 off XLR-3 inputs (balanced) only. Coaxial and optical digital outputs (use both at once on 2 different recorders if you wish). Converter cables can be made to take unbalanced mic inputs or line level inputs. Takes a single PP3 battery. 44.1kHz and 48kHz versions available. Works OK with portable DAT MD and HiMD recorders. Could do with a bit more gain for my needs (max is about 40dB). Built like a brick out-house. Weighs about 1lb (thats 0.45kg). Nice piece of kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
