2 soundcards and one computer
Posted: Fri Mar 07, 2008 10:34 am
Hello,
I'm Guillaume from Run Island.
I make music and softwares for my pleasure and to integrate them in my theatral or juggling shows.
I'm using a laptop with a M-audio Ozone soundcard/keyboard, 1 mic, a kaossilator synthetizer, commercial and self-made midi interfaces, and also 2 turntables with a mixer.
I'm planning to use some Ms Pinky gear for my turntables, but I wonder how to connect it:
Actually, I need at least one xlr input for mic and inputs for turntables.
Software is mainly Ableton Live
My question is:
Are there drawbacks to use a second soundcard simultaneously with my Ozone, like a Connectiv, to connect turntables to my pc ?
Or maybe should I use a more complex interface, like a M-Audio Fast Track Ultra, to have all required inputs on one card ?
Thanks in advance for sharing experience and giving advices.
