Hi All (danskere - undskyld sproget - bare svar på dansk).
I'm about to purchase a new soundcard. I've come up with two choises and I don't know which is best for me.
I use soundcards mainly for music makin purposes with such applications as Cubase VST but of cause also for games.
My current card is the SB AWE 64 VE with 8 MB of RAM. It's OK - SoundFont support is gooood. BUT - it's no good for pro hard disc recording with Cubase. Mainly because of DMA channel limit of one 8 bit and one 16 bit channel - meaning the I can't record and playback WAVE in good 16-bit quality at the same time.
The two new cards, do they make it possible?
Another question:
Both the LIVE and the EWS64L have digital effect processing units. Is it possible to use these features with Cubase? - and is it possible to apply these effects to an external audio source input in real-time?
Thanx in advance for your answers - don't hesitate to let me know of your pros and cons.
Greets,
Per

Hej Per
Jeg kender ikke SB LIVE og har h�rt om TT EWS64L at den har problemer med
db-udstyring. N�r m�lerne viser 0 db (Som jo er optimalt) s� overstyrer den
med ca. 10 db.
Det kan v�re at disse problemer er rettet i opdaterede drivere...
Hvis du vil have fat i det virkelige guf s� check Yamaha's DSP Factory...

Hvad ang�r Cubase og underst�ttelse af Hardware baserede effekter p� DSP
Factory, s� underst�ttes disse eller vil blive det i n�r fremtid!

>Hvis du vil have fat i det virkelige guf s� check Yamaha's DSP Factory... Klart nok... Til en pris af 6000kr +/- er det selvf�lgelig et ret godt kort... ;-) >Hvad ang�r Cubase og underst�ttelse af Hardware baserede effekter p� DSP >Factory, s� underst�ttes disse eller vil blive det i n�r fremtid! DSP Factory har 2selvst�ndige effekt processorer... De arbejder kun sammen med deres egne drivere, forst�et p� den m�de at de ikke kan afhj�lpe afviklingen af cubase eller directX realtime plugins !! Derfor kan den selvf�lgelig stadig bruges, da softwaren til kortet bare k�rer ved siden af sit sequencer program... Men alt i alt er det en 100% hardware baseret l�sning !! Og s� skal vi heller ikke glemme at der ikke er nogen wave table i kortet... Heller ikke et midi interface !! EMU laver et kort der hedder APS - Det koster vist ogs� over 6000kr, men dette HAR s� en Wavetable... Desuden er Yamaha p� vej med en l�sning der har det hele, plus en "Virtual synth" - Samme prisklasse...
