I am putting together a system to capture/edit/output to S-VHS tape. I have heard that if you input CD quality sound, you can output near CD quality? How is most voice recorded and edited (digitally). I have played with wav files and they seem easy enough to edit but, what is the best way to input reasonable quality audio(primarily voice mono) ? Is there any special equipment required? I have Sound Blaster 16, No software other than prepkg SB. Does compression reduce quality in audio as in video?
