what about " The Audigy 2 & Audigy 2 Platinum models that are currently available support ASIO 2 Direct Monitoring. These Audigy products do not support ASIO 2 Word Clock that is necessary for 24/96 recording. This level of support requires a different level of hardware that will be available when the Audigy 2 Platinum EX makes it's debut."
this was quoted from the bottom of the page Slashdot linked to.
as for your queston about latency, it is certainly possible for a $99 card to have 2ms latency, ONLY if its direct hardware montioring
yes, the Live(and Audigy and Extigy) resampled EVERYTHING, no matter what bit-rate/resolution the signal was in. if you ripped a cd digitally, it was allready at 16/44.1 the Live(etc...) would take that 16/44.1 signal and resample it to 16/44.1(why is beyond me).
if your source file was 16/48 or 24/48 or 24/96 or anything other than 16/44.1 the Live(et all) would downsample to 16/44.1 without using a proper Dither. needless to say, the resulting sound was very inferior in quality compared to the source
until it can do TRUE 24bit 96kHz operation(input/output) it will never be nothing more than gaming card.
dont know about this iteration of Audigy, but the Live Platinum, Audigy and Extigy would automaticlly resample whatever signal was thrown at it to 16/44.1, evenif the original signal was allready 16/44.1. needless to say, this resulted in non Bit-perfect digital transfers(from DAT, CD, etc to HardDisc and vice-versa).
I'll stick with my M-Audio Audiophile 2496 for $130 thank you very much
ok, correct me if Im wrong, but an internship is a NON-PAYING job(you know, like an apprenticeship)...at least it was non-paying when I was in school 15 years ago.
is that Slapper suppossedly hit the net on a sat, yet my server loggs show it was probing me on the thursday night preceding. the only affect it had on me was less bandwidth over my ADSL for a few days...
hmmm, without MS IBM's OS 2 would have seen more acceptance and Apple would see a much larger market share. you cant say that these 2 systems are not for the average Joe Schmoe
the 802.11g aiport extreme card fits into the same slot the standard airport fits into, so there still no need for a pcmcia card. granted as a recent purchaser of a 14" iBook, I wish it did have a pcmcia slot so I could add a certain audio device, BUT, firewire is FASTER!
Pearl Jam has down this(ok, the cds arent available AT the show) for years. Phish is now releasing each concert online no more than 2 days after a show in mp3($10.95) and shn($12.95) formats(shn is a lossless compression of a wav/aiff file that can be expanded to its original format) other bands havea "on-the-road" series similar tothe Pearl Jam format with cds shipping a week after the show.
"bootlegging" is when the concert taper *SELLS* the recording. most people who tape live shows do so under the approval of the band and for *TRADING* purposes only. I do agree that room recording with mics in general is better quality than a straight board feed
Lexmark USED to be the printer division within IBM. they were spun off into their own company a few years ago. IBM may own some stock in Lexmark, but they dont own Lexmark
while I personally could care less if the drivers are open or binary, I would like to see official NVidia drivers for their NForce platforms(complete...audio, ethernet, etc...)
hmmm, well currently I have both(attbi cable and speakeasy sdsl). honestly, the only reason why I have the cable is so my fiancee can do whatever she wants to do on the net without taking bandwith from my servers(on the dsl).
those of you saying how dsl sucks, GET OFF PPPOE!! no extra hardware, no filters, no software....nada, nil, nothin.
so much for running the PC BEHIND the surge pro...

so, should we run a line conditioner in front of and behind the pc when running with this relay tool?

there was no GOOD reason to resample in the first place. not only does it add noise, it reduces the quality of the original source.
(this is why the GOOD A/D/A converters cost THOUSANDS of $$$)
sorry, but this is BAD BAD BAD.
what about
" The Audigy 2 & Audigy 2 Platinum models that are currently available support ASIO 2 Direct Monitoring. These Audigy products do not support ASIO 2 Word Clock that is necessary for 24/96 recording. This level of support requires a different level of hardware that will be available when the Audigy 2 Platinum EX makes it's debut."

16/48...not sure I understand this question.

um, seeing how that option was in 1.2 and 1.1(for Windows at least) how is this a big deal?
ok, correct me if Im wrong, but an internship is a NON-PAYING job(you know, like an apprenticeship)...at least it was non-paying when I was in school 15 years ago.
when did an internship start paying?
as myself and a few others have stated, our server logs showed activity a _DAY_ before it *hit*, so yes, Symantec could have known early on.
is that Slapper suppossedly hit the net on a sat, yet my server loggs show it was probing me on the thursday night preceding.
the only affect it had on me was less bandwidth over my ADSL for a few days...
maybe Im just a weird case, but I cant even remember the last time I used the back button.
I always just open links, etc in a new TAB.
the ONLY button I regularly use is my refresh.

for the same amount of $ as the internal superdrive, you can get an external LaCie 4x firewire dvd-rw.
you do the math...
