Hi Arnault ! Be careful with external sound cards! A friend of mine buyed the creative labs sound blaster extigy http://us.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=207&product=585 for his laptop and he has got serious latency problems ( >200ms) on windows using Cubase. This external "card" uses USB which seems to be a bit too slow for this kind of application. Maybe there is firewire Hardware out there ? ?
