Howdy all,
as some of you know i'm not the largest mac user in the world. I do
however have to have a couple for testing purposes on software i develop.
anyway earlier i was asking about a pci based sound card that did spdif.
Heck since i have the machines i might as well play with them :)
OK, well this is more of a mac question than a md question but here goes
anyway. has anyone found a pci card that works with pci based mac's that
has digital out on them? and if you have how well do they work recording to
md?
thanks
