I am building a computer for a client who primarily wants to use it for Recording music, etc. He has stated that using his current system, when he has one app. open, then tries to use another app. that needs a SC, he gets an error that the SC is in use.
My question is, does he need 2 SCs, and what are the limitations/issues with this sort of activity. If he is using a MIDI app. with one SC, then opens another MIDI app. using the other SC, will it work? What sort of things will he run into, etc?
Simply, the client knows very little about PCs, and I know very little about PC Recording stuff. The overall PC is as solid as can be built, but I don't want to mislead him into thinking that buying a $270+ SC is going to resolve the issue he has presented to me, as I think it is due to other factors.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Right now, I am leaning towards a MoBo w/onboard sound and the Terratec DMX 6Fire 24/96 SC.
Thanks again,
Xynok
