Ian,
thank you for the reply! All I found from RME product line for
ExpressCard is the HDSPe
ExpressCard(http://www.rme-audio.de/en_products_hdspe_expresscard.php)
adapter which seems to provide interface to external RME I/O-boxes
like "Multiface II" or "Digiface". This setup would be bit overkill
and nothing but compact. Last but not least, this would be too
expensive. I would like to keep this ExpressCard sound card below
300$.
Any other suggestions? I'm especially interested in experience with
Echo "Indigo IOx ExpressCard" sound card in Linux environment.
regards,
Martin
