But Paul, now *you* (and Jaroslav and Abramo and...) should do the next
step and go to RME and require funding (you get specs, don't you) for
development of drivers for their labtop audio solutions ;) Why? Well, I
know this Final Scratch thing from a Music Convention in Berlin, where
Richie Hawtin's partner John Acquaviva presented it. Final Scratch is
in fact most useful if you're a DJ who wants to replace his heavy vinyl
pack with a light portable computer. And for that you need a decent
portable audio solution.
RME might be the only useful hardware for this.
Isn't it?
