Default If your girlfriend...

just bought you a Rode NTK and she was also willing to pay for a Mic Pre for it (had to be under $600) what would you get?

Im also thinking of buying an A/D converter (like an Apogee Rosetta) but first I would like know what are the advantages of an A/D. Whats the diffrence between say this: NTK > Mic Pre > Digi 001 and/or NTK > Mic Pre > Apogee Rosetta > Digi 001.

Please help me guys shes getting inpacient!!

All other things being satisfactory, first thing I'd do is marry her.

But only after she buys you the Really Nice Preamp.. so it's not community property

How about a nice Focusrite Octopre.
I know somebody who has one and it does seem very good quality.
It also added 8 extra imputs to the digi which can't hurt.
I know it's a lot to ask her for but your worth it.

The Apogee is about $1300.. for that money I'd recommend rather buying a Vintech 1073 clone and use the 002 A to D.

Doesn΄t she come with a nice rack??? (Sorry I just had to...)

What about upgrading to the 002/002r? ...and get a 10 m highend mic cable and one for the headphones?

I agree for $600 why not go for the upgrade program and get yourself an 002R, unless you have a pile of PT5.x plugins, then your upgrade cost would increase to get them PT6 compatible.

You gain 2 more preamps, and have 4 preamps actually worht something, plus decent converters.
