Hello, I am in the process of looking for a decent sound card to replace my current soundcard which is integrated in the motherboard. The requirement I am looking for are: 1. Supported by ALSA 2. 5.1 output channel with decent sound. 3. Have MIDI/Joystick port and MIDI capture is supported by ALSA. I want the to use the computer to capture MIDI from my keyboard with some sort of sequencer program so then I can print the music. 4. Line-in and Mic input. Line-in capture should be supported so I can record / digitize music. 5. Not too expensive :). Probably I am looking at around $50 or less to spend. Is there such soundcard ? I was first thinking Sound Blaster Live 5.1 but that card is hard to find nowadays in any online store that I browsed. So any recommendation / suggestion, and probably with link, is greatly appreciated. Thank you. RDB -- Reuben D. Budiardja Dept. Physics and Astronomy University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN
