Hey does anyone use the MAudio MIDISport UNO 1x1 MIDI Interface? http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/item--MDOUNO
I was reading the reviews and it seems that it is a PITA with XP.
Anyone have this problem? Also could someone recomend a good book on begining MIDI? I already ordered Basic MIDI by Paul White. Any other good ones? I was going to get that now and then...

I am going to be upgrading sound cards soon. I was looking at MAudio Audiophile 2496 http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/item--MDOAP2496 or the event's MIA MIDI Card http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7...rec/s=computer/search/detail/base_pid/247016/
what do you all think.

here is my puter wish list http://secure.newegg.com/app/WishList.asp?position=HISTORY&submit=VIEW&ID=359779
I think this will be compatible with either card. I have heard that event's stuff doesn't play well with AMD chip sets. Any merrit to this claim?

unfortunately I have to upgrade in these steps due to funding.

If anyone has the time to take a look and let me know what I am missing I would greatly apreciate it. Will the led light in the power supply or any other lights add buzzing or any other crap? I could easily do with out it. Just thought it would be fun.

It is pretty obvious that I am new to computer building for audio. I will have some help with the assembly.

Thanks and sorry for such a long post.
