As it happens, I've been researching USB audio interface devices to a little home studio recording. There are some devices in this category support 24 bit with 96 kHz sampling. The only problem with devices like this are: 1) The inputs are typically designed for a studio environment, using either XLR or TRS connectors. So, you'll need adapters and/or special cables. 2) Right and left channels are controlled seperately with no way to gang them together so that the level of both channels can be controlled with a single knob. This can be viewed as a feature too since you would have balance control of the signal being input to your computer.
Here are some reasonably priced devices I ran across during my research that you might find fit your needs: M-Audio Fast Track Pro Mobile USB - supports 24 bit/96 kHz M-Audio Fast Track MKii USB Audio Interface - supports 24 bit/ 48 kHz Lexicon Omega - 24/96 suport Lexicon Alpha - 24/48 support For a phono preamp, you could use a receiver you have with a phono in and use a tape monitor loop to record. Or, you could get something like the ART DJPre II phono pramp. Have fun! -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch, iPeng on iPod Touch, SqueezeCommander on Xoom.
