I've heard a rumor that there are at least two 16-bit (audio) direct-to-disk recording systems for the atari. Can anyone provide information about these products, such as what equipment they require, how they are priced, and what their specifications are (e.g., sampling rates, number of channels, etc.)? Thanks in advance for any information. dan hitt@neon.stanford.edu
