RE: can you do firewire?

" I'm also playing around with a program called Pure Vinyl that allows me to plug my turntable directly into the mic inputs of the RME and it does the EQ in software. I know. Blasphemy but so far I like what I'm hearing, You could then sell the phono stage and pocket that."
-----------------


This is exactly what I am thinking of at the moment. Using a Lavry mic pre with its special ribbon mode (70 dB gain) to a Lavry ADC than to a Macbook through either a Konnekt as SPDIF -FIREWIRE converter or directly Toslink. I think the only concern is the right level of the input to avoid clipping. Should be good. I hope to try it sometime in the next few weeks, when I have my Nottingham turntable at thome.
If you have some samples it would be interesting to upload somewhere to let us to hear it.
