[linux-audio-user] Quattro USB

[Wade Winright]

Thanks again for the reply, and I may take your advice and stay completely 
away from USB.

On that note, has anyone had any luck, good or bad, with the Digigram PCMCIA 
cards? I see notes of a Linux driver on thier site, and it is listed at 
alsa-project. Looking at the VX Pocket 440. If it works, it looks like a 
winner...

Thanks,
Wade
