I have just purchased a 166hz pentium to do the same thing.  I have
checked out the specs on current soundcards and I am wainting for the
release of Turtle Beache's pinnacle or AVM's Apex card.  I havn't yet
decided which (there's not a lot in it).  The both offer excellent
facilities for 4 track full duplex hard disk recording (and midi).
The pinnacle has about 48meg(approx) potential wavesample and the apex
up to 92(approx i can't remember exact figures).
Free sequencing software comes with both packages. - There both priced
around the the �200 mark.
I would be interested in anyone else's experiences? - Any comments?
Regards...Lee
