Heyas, Anyone know of a good, but inexpensive 8-channel D/A converter? I would like to have balanced outputs, and preferable 24 bit, in a single rack space. ...
I have an old Korg 880DA which I really like. It has balanced outputs but was only 16 bit. But to my ears it sounded better than the convertors on the Alesis...
Carlton, Thanks for the response. This theatre seems dead-set on staying with 5.4c because it came on the CDs they bought. That and some myth about it being ...

Hello all, Yes, version 5.50b is very stable. It's not the software, it's the operating system (Win98SE). If you want a very stable platform, use Windows XP...

Yes this is correct. Echo's WDM drivers Versions 6.00, 6.01, 6.02 and 6.03 will cause problems if you try to run them under Win98. If you must use Win98SE, use...
