Anyone tried the Creative Sound Blaster Extigy (USB audio processing for use with a laptop) or the Voyetra Turtle Beach Santa Cruz (24bit audio card, preferred to the SBLive) with RedHat9/Shrike? I need both for a special app but don't want to invest the $190. plus shipping if RH9/Shrike cannot leverage the key features (e.g. 24bit and 44.1KHz audio processing with exceptionally low noise, etc.) One other question -- what about audio format conversion, e.g. CDA to MP3 or WAV under RH9/Shrike? Any preferred apps? I did look at CDDOIT which *may* do what I need: http://www.geocities.com/cddoit/index.html Once I get the modem or nic working on may notebook I may try it -- unless I get a better suggestion.
