If you're a stickler for quality like I am, then you'll want a soundcard
with digital I/O. That doesn't mean you need to pay megabucks for a good
card, unless you also want a card that has an excellent DA converter for
listening to any post-production work you actually perform on your WAV's
before recording to CD.
I use a Turtlebeach Fiji with Digital I/O. Excellent price, and excellent
sound to boot. It's one of the most accurate soundcards I've had the
pleasure of working with and was well worth the $400 I spent on it 3 years
back.
As for Sony's USB connection, in terms of sonic quality it's every bit the
same as transferring digitally via the S/PDIF format. Either way, you cannot
go wrong when you're going digital. If the quality of the recording wasn't
the best to begin with, then you may as well just go anaogue instead.

hi
what is the best way to take live shows youve recorded on your MD and
transfer them to a CD-R on your computer? should i invest in a killer
soundcard or is it a waste of money? is it ok to just go mini-to-mini with
the CD-RW? is there a reasonably priced MD component that allows for digital
output to a burner?
also, what benefit do i get with the sony USB connection in terms of sonic
quality?
i tried the archives but they are SO hard to navigate with respect to this
question.
