My laptop has mono mic in and that's all. It is seen as stereo by Linux, but in reality only one channel is transmitting, so it is effectively mono. I need a stereo input since I have lots of external devices I would want to record from. So I really need a soundcard that can receive stereo input. And I am amazed that so much pro soundcards do not offer that. I thought it is a very necessary feature.<br>
