(Of course, it's easy to say yes when it's not a reality) Haha-I did! Why?because I could hear the difference the "better" soundcard made to the sound I could capture of my Sax playing. That's right I COULD hear the difference. Between the accuracy of a �300 card and a �800 card so God knows what the difference between SB/Audigy and the RME would be. Recordings made with same mic,mixer,room etc,the card was the only difference. The accuracy of the captured Sax sound being very important(not to mention the other associated benefits)was reason enough to upgrade for me. I still say however,with a nod of respect,if it works for you and you're happy-great,get on with it,make music. I kind of resent being made out a money waster,elitist,kudos hungry idiot just 'cos I made a music based decision for my own needs though. ATB-DG.
