-- //| //|| // | // || Thanks Matt and Frank for responding. The reason I asked is because ALSA includes my ECHO GINA audio card on its list of compatible devices and I can't find a way to make it work on FreeBSD.
I have an extra PCI audio card that IS working but I was just trying for a higher end audio so I could run one of multitrack recording software. I love FreeBSD too much to switch it for linux for any reason. I'll just keep using "wishndows" until FreeBSD becomes the best and most stable OS for professional audio recording.
