Interesting stuff, thanks for sharing! I have an M-Audio Audiophile 2496 which I use for some very amateur messing around. I occasionally hook an Alesis Micron up to it, both MIDI and the headphone-out into the M-Audio's line-in. I've read/heard some folks suggest that for "serious" audio work, one should use an external sound "card" (e.g. via USB - such as the old SB Extigy's), because all PCI cards suffer from some noise due to their nature (close proximity to the HDD, signal interference on the mainboard etc.) -- is this basically horseshit? I've never noticed any such problems with the Audiophile nor with an SB Live! PCI card, although I probably wouldn't notice some distortions as I'm not a professional. I did notice that the on-board sound chips on both my desktop and successive laptops have had a lot of noise on their inputs. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
