Those are all legit reasons. Just keep in mind that they aren't necessarily musical reasons. It depends if your priority is feeling good or...
Now, I'm not saying you can never get a worthwhile deal on such things, however: There's a reason other people pass this stuff up. That's because...
These. Save your $$$ until you're compelled to spend it.
I know Neil Young believes in analog voodoo :) Seeing more headroom doesn't mean anything if you're not using it; it's just empty bits of...
You said that you were screwed if you weren't recording in @ super-high specs. I choose to disagree with that because either the additional...
Isn't the cage nut supposed to be on the inside? Maybe I'm missing the point. Then again, you could get those rack stud things and be done with it.
Subjective: In other words, skewed from reality by the biases of the observer. Seems like what we want to avoid here. Now, creative choices and...
Because you can't just take a file and re-save it at a higher sample-rate/bit-depth? Who is going to call your bluff? The dogs, bats, and dolphins...
You're right in terms of metering expressions, I suppose, but remember that bit-depth expresses dynamic range, and thereby also the ratio of...
If you've got Waves (just a convenient option, folks) try NLS/HLS with Kramer Tape/J37.
I don't think that's a fair assessment. Why abandon recording techniques/styles/results of the past when they're still viable as an aesthetic...

If we're following the train of thought that free means freedom instead of free of cost, then I guess. But I think it can be safely assumed they...
If it didn't cost you anything in terms of money or trade in goods/services then it's "free" by any normal usage of the word. If it's not worth...
I've been tempted to purchase one or two of these myself. Being able to put ROMs into Linn is a nice touch.
It was pretty nice and the only real contender to the FL Studio (Fruity Loops at the time) workflow back in the day. It could do different time...
This isn't going to answer your question with one concrete answer, but here's something to think about: 16-bit audio (how we've traditionally...
Hate to endorse any company related to Avid, but... M-Audio Venom might meet your qualifications.
You're just psyching yourself out. Think about it this way: You know how "vocal removal" works? By taking the inverse of one channel and adding...
Life is too short to troubleshoot M-Audio gear. No offense intended; I've owned some myself, but never regretted moving on past the initial sting...
Separate names with a comma.
