I've tried two different feeds for vinyl:
1) Turntable-->mixer-->{analog}Sony MDS-E10{coaxial}-->MOTU I/O-->Mac
2) Turntable-->mixer-->{analog}MOTU I/O-->Mac
Going through the pro MD sounds MUCH better! (#1)....I don't get it. I go from the MD deck to the I/O via COAXIAL, so that means I'm actually using the I/O's DAC, right? I don't understand why going through the deck first makes it sound so much better.
Can anyone help me out?
I'm a perplexed beginner in the world of audio who is really appreciating all of the help received from this board.
