RE: Tascam DA-3000 Should I own one?

As I mulled this decision over I decided against the DA-3000 as I was not sure I would ever use the DSD part. So I ordered a Tascam DR680mk2 from Sweetwater Sound through Ben Porter my sales contact.

It really came down to the flexibility of being able to record 6 tracks at 24/96 or 2 tracks at 24/192 and the ability to mix down to stereo which I have not been able to do before. I can handle 24/192 in my Sony Sound Forge which was a big deal to me.

I will later pair it with either 2-True Solo's or 2-Focusrite ISA One's that will give me some great mic pres. We will see how the 4 on-board mic pres are, but Bob Katz said they are strictly a utility for him as he uses his for his film work with better mic pres and likes it.
