Look at the layla for example. Or rme's offerings. The pci card
doesn't do anything to do with analog signals. The ad/da's are in the
external box, and it's just digital signals going to the pci card,
same as with a firewire solution, only you don't have to deal with
dodgy firewire controllers on the motherboard, etc. Look at rme's pro
cards, eg the amazingly expensive madi cards, they are pci too. I find
you're reply quite insultingly toned btw,
Also AFAICT firewire will never be capable of latency as low as a good
PCI device.
