I'm using an Adaptec AHA-7850 SCSI interface card. I used this in the past with Sound Forge (back when it was made by Sonic Foundry) and it worked fine. I think SMDITools' problem with the ESI4000 is sample numbering. I believe SMDITools starts at 0 where the ESI4000 starts at 1 (0 is the clipboard). I'll come back with more info when I get another chance to dig around in the SMDITools code (my C is far from great though (far from good, even)). Thanks, Dan Gordon J. C.
