Hi I'm currently using a Tascam US-122 into my laptop to record guitars & vocals via a Tech 21 Sansamp GT2 and a Shure SM57.

I'd like to upgrade my interface/soundcard and am looking for your thoughts. Bear in mind that as I'll be continuing to use a laptop so it must connect via firewire or USB rather than slotting into the motherboard.

Anyone know of a very cheap (

Is anyone sucsessfully using any aardvark product with an athlon 64 set up?
If so what chipset are you using?
Since aardvark is out of business I have been unable to find this info.
Perhaps I will be the first to try it.

i installed the audiophile 2496 to my pc, and it works great with my two 5' samson rubicon monitors. But, after i installed the audiophile soundcard, for some reason, when i plug my headphones to my pc, which is (my Stock Audio Card) i dont hear nothing... i cant even choose my stock (old) soundcard's drivers on Reason's Audio Preferences Drivers.. i only see the audiophile drivers.

For my productions i'm using a PC with a M-Audio 410 Firewire. Very pleased with it so far. I am having trouble understanding how the 410's control panel works though;

How must i set the mixer to make the 410 record itself?

With my old SB-Live soundcard i could select 'what you hear' in the record properties and then in i.e. Soundforge i could record everything that played.

Hi All,

I currently have a setup that included an M-Audio Delta 44 (4 in/0ut) soundcard. I am getting the point now though where 4 inputs is not enough.

I think I can run 2 Delta 44's in Parallel. Is this the case?

Me and my buddy are looking for a new soundcard for his Dell. the computer is soley made for recording purposes and only has acid and Sonar on it now. we want a serious soundcard for it, as we are purchasing a humongous studio mixer soon. any suggestions?

hope you can help
