Total newb here...I am recording fingerstyle guitar with two Neumanns into a two channel pre into my PC with an M-Audiophile soundcard. I also have a laptop that I would like to use for computer fan noise and portability reasons. My question: Is there some way to use my audiophile soundcard with my laptop, like some sort of PCI box that can be external to the laptop?
 
Magma has PCI expansion chassis, but they aren't cheap.
Around $650 - $750 for a single slot.
 
I always wondered if they made such a thing. Man that isn't cheap. I wonder if anyone makes a cheaper thing that does the same.
 
No.

Far cheaper and easier to get a USB or PCMCIA recording card.

...oh and Rule #1: Ain't NOTHIN about recording that'll end up being cheap...

I got a Echo Indigo a few months ago. Very pleased with the results. Might want to check one out.
