OP can’t post anymore today because he’s a new user, he was on 16 bit recording and gonna check out 24…
Here’s what I pm’d him, we’ll hear from him tomorrow I guess…
I was gonna stay out of your topic just because I’ve talked about this a lot…
I do use an OT mk1 for live looping sampling, in my opinion I have really good ears and can notice a difference between my apogee enemble at 96000 and the OT, but the difference is super subtle and most of my friends can’t notice it…
Once I did a/b tests of the remastered dark side of the moon from apogee and through OT mixer dir, difference was super subtle, the material still sounded epic through the OT as it should…
Here’s my gain tips for sampling on a mk1, not sure if it’s exactly the same for mk2 and currently I’m adjusting it a little, but it has given me good results in the past:
Hope you get to where you like it, I guarantee you there’s tons of artists using it and we would not if we thought our tone was destroyed… But if your not happy I always say go with your gut, don’t let us try to make you keep it if you really just wanna sell the thing…
Good luck!
