I haven't heard anyone claim that it samples better, though SunRize would
probably say it does.  The 'software-controlled input gain' feature is the
problem with the 3.0 hardware because most software out now does not know
about it.  As to *my* 3.0 hardware, it seems to be broken in that all the
samples I've done have their negative amplitudes chopped off. :-(
