[BC] Simian and Soundcards

[Tom Spencer]

SPL Studio provides their own VU meters...

And Ross does recommend the best soundcard you can afford, and more than 
one is better - in fact is necessary in order to be able to use the 
preview players.  I assign the on-board "card" to the preview player,and 
the Echo Darla24 for primary playback. 

But, like they say: "If it's stupid, but it works, it ain't stupid."
