Re: ai-3 still current?
The AI-4 is a digital format converter (AES/EBU <-> ADAT optical), no analog section whatsoever.
The AI-3 has been 24-bit for years, I've bought them for several clients to use with Digi001's since about mid-2000. Don't let the price or brand name scare you, I would argue that they are marginally better than the a/d in the 001, but you don't really notice until you have a $1k preamp in front of it. It's a shame neither have word clock.
