I can back up point 3. The Darla would freeze a perfectly stable machine on
a very regular basis. It and the asus p2ls wouldn't play together (the card
was moved to different slots too). Yet a p2b would be okay. Both mobo and
card were replaced and the problems continued. The eventual solution was

Hmm, I've got my hands somewhat dirty with this, although not from a
particularly Linux-friendly viewpoint. My requirement was/is a four channel
card for use with Ambisonic recording and a laptop (and ideally with my
current desktop too). Stages I've been through:

Apologies if this is old hat to some of y'all, but I was curious to know if
anybody has had any experience using a software RAID disk configuration for
multitrack audio purposes, like with Ardour. I'm particularly interested to
know how a software RAID 1 (mirroring) setup holds up in such an e

I did the conversion and that is $26,400.
