[QUOTE="Village Idiot, post: 477434, member: 29446"] I think he's saying that it would sound better through an a/d interface than straight into the line in on the mac. Makes since though. a/d interfaces are made with the primary function to switch an analog signal to a digital signal with losing as much fidelity as possible where as the line in on an iMac probably wouldn't have the quality that you would get from an a/d interface... Would your average person be able to tell the difference? Probably not...Should you do one over the other if you [i]require[/i] as best quality as you can get with a cheap setup and limited recording options? Probably... [/QUOTE]
