Hi All,
I am looking for advice on a external usb2 sound card. I have 2 HP XW6000 boxes and microphone does not work for either of them. One of them has WinXP and the other one hosts Mandriva/Fedora Linux distributions.
So, I want to buy an external card that I can attach to either box mostly to use skype. I checked Creative site: It looks like their Live 24 card has both Linux and XP drivers but it is USB 1.1. I would prefer to have usb2.
usb1.1 is fin for audio in/out in general. You need 1.1Mb/s for cd quality audio uncompressed, and you have 12Mb/s. unless you're doing multitrack recording the difference is superficial.
Suggestions?
Thanks, Adil
