It's sort of embarrassing but the Hammerfall DSP cards work with either the Expresscard adapter or an Expresscard-to-Cardbus adapter (the latter _has_ to map the PCI express lane of the Expresscard slot, not the USB lane) with the old Cardbus adapter. It's ancient technology with 8 line-in/line-out connectors and quite robust ADAT support, but in terms of the quality and latency of the available connections and driver support, it's still unprecedented. The Expresscard-to-Cardbus adapter solution is not overly convincing mechanically. And you need to dig up the firmware for 64bit versions of Linux (no idea where I got my .deb from when I needed to upgrade). And of course, Expresscard slots are a dying breed as well. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
