I've been wondering this for a while. We receive a large amount of tapes to master and archive. As of now, the only way to record DSD128fs is through a Korg MR unit. There are several converters/workstations that will record DSD64fs.
We blindly put up files from both formats at 24/176.4 and no matter what sample rate converter we use, our clients ALWAYS choose the DSD64fs file to use as their format of choice. This got me to thinking. When DSD128fs becomes available, will this replace DSD64fs as the "go to" format? Merging has a converter that will record at DSD256fs.
So, what I will do in the next week (when I get time), is to put up DSD128fs files and compare them to the very best that DSD64fs has to offer. I will use the Grimm AD1 into the Sonoma against the new modified Korg MR2000s.
