We record a lot of sound and have used DAT tapes, but, in the interests of
trying to simplify hardware configurations (decks, amps plugs, cords) and
the time required to pass sound from DAT tapes to digital formats, (mpg) we
are working to record directly into our MACs in many contexts. With this
ability being on board in 2.4, direct input becomes even more enticing:

problem:  the "background hiss/hum" that seems to always get added to the
sound when it is recorded directly into a MAC...

We are using high quality microphones and the mic is held enough away from
the computer that the sound of the spinning of the hard drive can't be
implicated and there is a "worry" that possibly the internal hardware of the
MAC is actually adding this to the sound....if I take the same mic and put
it into a DAT machine in the exact same spot... no background hum...so it is
definitely "computer" added.

If anyone knows about these issues and solutions,  perhaps you could email
me off list? Thanks
