I didn't think I needed to spell out that I was referring to all else being equal. Same mic, same pre-amp, let's say flat EQ, whatever, all outboard gear being identical, no internal effects being used, probably best to use no reverb to avoid masking anything. The whole point BEING to make a direct, apples to apples comparison. Cards A,B,C,D,E. Presumably 4 of the 5 being pricey high-end pro audio cards.
