That can be a 'virtual' soundcard defined in .asourdrc, but unless you can sync the cards, jack will eventually crash anyway. For instance, think about what happens if your playback card is running at 44100 hz and your recording card at 44102 hz. Lacking a wordclock, SMPTE or spdif connetion between sound devices, your probably out of luck. BTW, with soundblaster 16 ISA cards it is possible to sync multiple cards, by snipping the crystal from all but one, and jumpering from the remaining crystal to all the cards. I presume this will work with other cards as well, but probably only if they are identical or really similar. But I'm going to stick with my Maudio 1010. -- e. j. branagan the MUSE ? Nashville, TN
