I can use it as a USB sound card, but only with two of its microphones at a time, and a maximum sampling rate of 48k (I think these are also limitations under any other OS, because of USB bus speed). I have found it more useful to record using the H2 alone, then grab the files off of it as if it were a flash drive. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
