I'm checking out my options for doing high quality

laptop, and I read about hammerfall's pcmcia interface to their dsp system
and I'm wondering what people's experiences have been.

I have the hammerfall dsp cardbus interface and a multiface. I use it in a
dell inspiron 4150 laptop running debian unstable and it works well. It was
much easier to set up than I expected, it took about the same time to install
as it did in windows as I already had alsa installed with all the modules
compiled so it was just a matter of editing a few files. I have been
recording drums and guitar using ardour and the quality seems good, but I
haven't compared it to anything else yet. One thing it does need though is a
better mixer as I think at the moment you can only control the volume of the
outputs in alsamixer or at least very few controls. I think someone is
working on a clone of RME's totalmix which should make the card more
appealing.
