S/P Dif in theory will give you best quality....But I would just get a good sound card and connect via standard cable going from the output jack of the Tonelab...

i thought about a "Terratec x24 FW"
Is this a good soundcard?? There I have also an optical S/PDIF. What do think about? Or what would you buy in this pricerange? |

Terratec is a good card in that price range imo.
I don't use s/p dif to link equipment as I find the limitation of 2 channels too - er - limiting. However, apart from that digital s/p dif is ok for home use. At some point analogue has to be converted to digital so any DAW has to use an ADC. To me the question would be how good is the ADC on the Tonelab and what are its limitations: is it limited to 44.1, 16 bit or can it do other, higher resolutions; how good is its digital clock; what is the noise floor; and so on. If these are worse then the Terratec then I would use the Tonelab for an analogue signal and convert at the Terratec. TBH I would imagine that the Terratec would be better at ADC - I don't know however as I don't have performace data on the Tonelab. Cheers, Tony Addendum - as the Tonelab has already digitised the signal (which it may have done being a multi-fx) then you may as well stay in the digital domain anyway rather than converting back to analogue to send to a soundcard... -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

I agree with tony, ADC on Tonelab may not be as good as with Terratec sound card. Refer to the Tonelab manual, in the specs it should say about sample rate and bit depth of the AD converters onboard. The check out the specs of the Terratec and see what sort of sample rates it conforms. It should match on one value, probably 44100 or 48000, 16bit/24bit.
Another interesting thing to check out is if the Tonelab is doing AD/DA conversion when outputs the analog signal or the signal stays in the analog domain through the device. If the second case is true, than using the analog out on the Tonelab should be used, and save Terratec's S/P DIF for other uses...
