And how great they sound etc. ( Something I have done for the last 12 years. ) This all leaves the subject in question begging for an answer. Apparently no one on this list does any serious sound work needing high quality output beyond the capacity of the native Mac specs. And therefore cannot make a recommendation beyond the home consumer alternatives. The reason you got little response outside of those, is you really didn't explain what you're wanting to do? If you are talking about building a virtial studio? That isn't something you can do on the cheap... Dedicated midi cards and FW/USB midi solutions aren't cheap. They seldom to never show up used and that was one the things you asked about. So it's no so much that nobody has done it but that the idea of tight budget and virtual studio aren't exactly compatible. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
