I want to start notebook music recording.
My keyboard has both an SPDIF input and output and midi in/out + I want to have some analog possibilities......

I am thinking of getting me a Digigram 440 VXPocket PC Sound Card, any comments, disclaimers, warnings?

What seems to be the gold standard for PCMCIA cards?

Thanks guys!!!
 
Might wanna look at a firewire PCMIA adapter and some of the firewire audio boxes. Not too many PCM boxes out there... I think there's the LAYLA, RME, and a something i'm forgetting along with the V2 but not much info on them around. Firewire seems to be pretty stable and you'll even have a fast port for other external devices like hard drives and all.

Happy hunting...
 
You should just get an Mbox or some other USB interface. This is what I use on my Compaq Preserio...works great.

Try recording more than 2 tracks at a time with it using 24bit audio...

If you are at all serious about working on a laptop, Firewire and/or PCMCIA (PC-Card) are the only two options one should consider at the moment.
