Hi all,

I'm getting a bit more serious about my music so thinking of getting a
better sound card (I've got a SB Live at moment!).

I've had a look around but a lot of pro cards seem to offer huge
amounts of inputs/outputs which I don't need.

I just need a pair of balanced outputs to go to my mixer, and a pair of
balanced outputs to come back from my mixer.

It'll need to be full-duplex so I can play using Skale tracker (I use
it for controlling midi mainly, but also for some samples), and record
with whole mix with cooledit.

I've been having a look at this:

The DAL CardDeluxe seems to fit the bill, and I think it's full duplex.
It has no midi, but I can always get a seperate midi (or use live
still).

I also came across the Henry USB matchbox which sounds interesting.

USB though?

I also came across the Edirol UA-25 :

again its USB but might fit the bill.

Any thoughts of any of these, and anything else of similar price range
that might be what I'm looking for.

Cheers
