I noticed though that if I select either of the line ins on the live
drive for recording it does not dselect the previous device. E.g I can
select the line in on the back of the card for recording and the the
stereo line in on the live drive and the mono line in on the live drive.
As nowhere have seen that the sblive has five channels in I assume that
something isn't working right.
