I would imagine there are plenty of professional ADCs with level controls. As to their sound quality, I have no idea. Start by looking at musiciansfriend.com, jandr.com, and bhphoto.com in the pro audio recording sections. Watch out for volume attenuators that discard bits to reduce volume. Stick to analog controls that precede the A-to-D conversion.
Would like USB ADC w/ input level control
Windows7/HRT LineStreamer/Audacity
Purchase an HRT LineStreamer. Great sound except I can't control the input level. This is a USB ADC. Works fine for 70% of my LP's, but for any lp recorded hot it peaks will over 0db
Figured I can adjust the line level from either the hardware itself (LineStreamer) or via Windows system mixer. But NOOOO, can't do it there either! I can find the LineStreamer but unable to adjust input level.
Audacity states that w/ USB the level will be at the hardware level...
Soooo, I'm looking for a USB ADC w/ input volume control. Prefer one that is still in production.
The Benchmark ADC 1, although really nice, might be a little out of my price range. Would like to spend under 1K.
My Linn Linto gain is about 62db
My Benz ACE L is about .4V
My VTL preamp is about 20db
Any help?
