I am about to digitise a number of 1/4" reel to reel tapes which contain speech only. I have a couple of ex-BBC Studers and a couple of laptops which have Adobe Audition software, but there is a limited budget. I know I should buy a good quality stand alone A/D converter which will handle both sets of eqipment. So, given that funds are limited, my questions are:
1. Which A/D converter would you recommend? What are people using? Jonathan Draper has mentioned the Sonifex Redbox ADDA as a possibility.
2. Undesirable though it may be from a best practice point of view, if you had to use a soundcard for a PC, which would it be?
Thanks
Colin Hyde
