Hello.
I might be getting a new laptop and a new sound card within some months.
I have been using a pcmcia card (echo indigo) and an m-audio dmp3 mic preamp
and two condenser mics. Not having used a usb-sound card before, and reading
some forum posts about trouble applying phantom power from the usb slot,
I am looking for advice what to buy.
For now i only need two inputs.
1) Should i opt for a usb powered or a wall wart powered sound card?
2) Is the dmp3 better than the preamps found in steinberg and focusrite sound cards?
