My church band has a 20-channel Firewire device that records all of that to a separate laptop that sits with the sound board and doesn't have to do anything else. (Although I might try recording stereo outs from the soundboard once, just to see how it goes. But wouldn't be using it as a synth at that time.) > Things get more hairy when using sources generated on the > PC. But then just playing them with 64ms latency is the > real problem. Yah, I'll have to see how it goes. -- David gnome@xxxxxxxxxxxxx authenticity, honesty, community _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
