Aug 24, 2004 11:28 am if anyone could add some advice as to why the 1010lt is the so much cheaper than the delta 1010 that would be great!

ok, once again i'm counting on you guys to be able to help me and my equipment needs! you guys have been great so far!
i currently have behringers ub-2442fxpro and delta 66 to record. but as i research, it seems to make SO much more sense to get the delta 1010LT with 8 inputs/outputs (2442 has 8 direct outs), midi/wordclock and s/pdif than stick withthe delta 66 (only 4 inputs + s/pdif). and for $20 extra bucks it just seems silly!!
why is the dleta 1010lt so cheap? is there something bad about the imputs? is there a reason the delta 1010LT is so much cheaper than say the delta 1010?
thanks everyone!!!

Aug 24, 2004 11:31 am Mostly I am guessing because the 1010 has a rackmountable breakout box and balanced inputs for starters...big difference in my book...
Aug 24, 2004 09:28 pm wow. that's amazing that those "ease of use" differences make the price so different. thanks though :)
Aug 25, 2004 05:44 am There may be more, that is just what popped into my head right away...but balanced jacks isn't an ease of use thing, if you have all balanced gear, it's a sound quality thing.
Aug 25, 2004 09:21 am Also, taking the conversion out of the computer help with reducing noise in the audio stream.
Aug 25, 2004 10:44 am for the 1010, would you hook up the mixer to its xlr inputs?
Aug 25, 2004 10:46 am it depends on your set up...if you mixer has XLR outputs, sure, that'd be cool...
Aug 26, 2004 01:34 am so in all honesty, if i get the 1010-lt and sell my delta 66, will i really notice a difference between the balanced and unbalanced inputs?? i do want good sound quality as i will be doing some live recording and have no room for loud clicking/popping but 8 in is a lot more than 4 in! (not to mention it compliments my 2442 perfectly!)
will i be ok if i keep the snake under say 3 meters?
Aug 26, 2004 02:18 am is there a certain surge protector or some other product i can purchase with the 1010lt to prevent noise?
Aug 26, 2004 04:07 pm whoah...could someone please explain this whole balanced/unbalanced thing...its so lost on me...or perhaps point me to an article or website that may explain it
Sep 07, 2004 10:24 pm I know this post is old, but for future reference, when i called Midiman about these 2 cards they told me that it was due to the signal picking up noise from the computer, I know this was stated in a previous post, but i figured i would let ya know that I heard it straight from Midiman, so if anyone else comes across this same question, hopefully this will be helpful.
Mar 29, 2005 12:26 pm I was curious about this question as well. For me, 4 inputs is more than enough, but im more concerned about the quality of sound.
Can anyone who has used both the Delta 66 and 1010LT tell us if there is a big difference in sound quality?
Thanks
Mar 29, 2005 07:49 pm I've not used the 66 but here are the specs for both cards

Also the 66 doesnt have MIDI. but there are heaps of MIDI/USB solutions around these days.
Mar 29, 2005 08:21 pm I had a 1010lt and it worked well . I ended up moving to the 1010 because I don't plan on up grading for a while and the 1010 seemed like the logical choice . But if you are looking at something to have mic pre's i'd keep the 1010lt or check out something else . I wanted the balanced I/O's .
Mar 29, 2005 11:11 pm chex, there really shouldnt be any sonic differance between them as they are litterally the same. Just one has more input options then the other.
