There is an AWE64 soundcard gathering dust in the mess of wires behind my computer. I've never tried to do anything fancy with my Ensoniq ES3771, but it playes music nicely. I got it because it is one of the named cards in the kernel config, and because it's only $20.
I happen to be a musician, but if I'm going to use my computer for stuff related to that, it'll have to be Pro-Tools on a Mac: specialized pretty hardware, and software that'll work. Almost as good as a 4-track... Incidentally, I got my AWE-64 to work once. *ONCE*. I have no idea how, as I'd lost count of the number of kernel compiles I'd done by then, and the ISAPNP stuff..? Normally cryptic stuff like that interests me, but not in this case. </rant> Have a good evening.
