TBH, this should be more about opinions on the best audio interface you can get. That's more important to me than the s/w.

This is were the character of the sound is born. :wink:

IMO the variance between converters for A/D conversion is minimal. 24 bit will always be 24 bit, as will 192kHz. D/A is another story, that's where you will hear the differences between the high end Apogee or Lavry versus a Tascam or M-Audio. If you don't believe me test it.

very interesting point there
and probably truth...you'd think theyd put more money into quality A/D across the board because they know you don't want to eventually put your shit on a nice monitors and be like 'what the hell happened'?
they can cheap out on D/A though banking on the fact that you might NOT have nice monitors, even though you might someday.
