January 27, 200818 yr comment_91062 I'm looking for an external USB sound card to use with RMAA. Sorry but my cheap laptop has no Firewire ports. Some options: M-Audio Transit Edirol UA-1EX M-Audio Audiophile USB M-Audio MobilePre E-MU 0404 USB Any comments on the above or others would be appreciated. Renato Report
January 27, 200818 yr comment_91064 The Audiophile USB and E-MU 0404 USB are the ones I would choose. I use the audiophile and it has rca ins/outs along with coax digital in and out, which means you can also output digital to dac, then dac feeds amp, then loop back in through the rca analog in to try the chain. You can do that with the emu too. The other ones are a bit limited. Report
January 27, 200818 yr comment_91066 If you dont mind spending a few bucks more to get a firewire or combo laptop card adapter, the firewire audiophile is a much better choice because the usb one limits you in terms of the overall in/out choices. Lets say you do 24/96khz then you can only have ONE choice, analog in, out, spdif in, or out. If you use two or more, you will only be able to do 24/48khz for the channels. With the Firewire you can simultaneously play/record 24/96khz with rmaa or whatever else. Report
