As and addendum to this: To anyone who has experience with the SBPro, are
there any cards that do better sampling/playback? I had an SBPro that
I used to record some CD input through the external 1/8" plug. When I 
played them back, they sounded disappointingly "hiss-y." I ended up
returning the card. The music and sounds that are provided or that the
card generates by itself were superb, but I want/need good sampling
quality. Any options for less than the $4000 profession 24bit, 25MIPS
cards?

Also, does using the CD-Rom as an input device for sampling (like say, to
the SBPro card) improve the sampling quality significantly? I don't 
currently own a CD-ROM, so couldn't test it.

Thanks,
