I seriously doubt that you are going to get much of a recording to your laptop. I don't even think you can get a quality soundcard that will be small enough to fit into one either. Better look into bringing down a desktop PC. Better yet, why not just rent a DAT player, or even better than that, a CD burner then you can rip the tracks onto a computer for editing and what not. If you go that route, I think many could help you do that. You don't need a high quality soundcard to go this route, just a CD ROM drive and some software that cost's nothing. It can be downloaded for free. Also, GoldWave is an excellent audio editor that can be downloaded for free, and the demo version is fully capable, no crippled features.

Yeah- With an ADAT and a digital route to even a cheapo soundcard once you bring the ADAT back to the studio, your recordings will be much closer to God than by any other route in this price range. For a little less will be the $699 standalone TASCAM CDR/RW. It's really flexible as to where you can hook up the outputs. And gives you a CD that you can listen to on regular systems right away. You still need some good pres but I figure you've got that stuff handled in a mixer somewhere.

Not to go against the brethern here but Guitar Center sells a type 2 PC card that provides 4 in 4 out of audio, 2 balanced analog in out and S/PDIF stero digital in out and 24 bit converters with sampling up to 48khz. It includes Mac and PC drivers and a break out cable. Its called VXpocket and sells for $599. So it's not impossible just real expensive. I think you would also need a fairly hot laptop.

Layth, love your work. I don't seem to get much positive response on the laptop front as you can see. I know it ain't cheap but I do a lot of travelling and want to be able to sample and chomp out the basics when and where I can. Money is always a factor but if one wants a thing one just makes sure they gets that thing. a good bank job should sort out the finances.
Thanks again

Any other handy hints would be greatly appreciated.
