it matters. imagine an mp3 encoder that cuts off at 10k instead of 15k ... huge diff!

this looks a tasty gadget for the job - but this tape isnt worth the $350M-AUDIO MICROTRACK 24/96
ok.. I think I have the bases covered now and know which direction to head.
Thanks Five & everyone

the microtrack2496 is worth getting for taping new shows. HK is quite a good deck. just grab a soundcard, M-Audio2496 or E-MU0404 for $120 or so for better digital recording and also better playback.
