[Avid-L2] Re: 12-Bit Audio

Doesn't the XL-1 have analog outs? RCA into your Mojo, better then a conversion, which I don't think will be an option...

I'm out in the field presently, and can't remember whether I can set 12-bit audio as an option in Media Composer. If I can't, will MOJO transcode the audio to the project's format as it's digitized? If not, can I simply transcode the audio to 16-bit after digitizing?
