[Duo2400] Re: 2400 audio queries

Sure. I agree, headphone output should be avoided if possible if 
line-level is available.

For those with money to burn, there is one PC Card that I know of that 
offers professional grade audio input to a 2400 (or any other Mac with a 
PC card slot). It's the Digigram VxPocket (the v2 is the 2-channel model, 
and the 440 is the 4-channel model). They even have Mac OS X drivers. 
It's several hundred dollars, however.

I might try out using the USB card/iMic solution to see if it works -- I 
actually have been very happy with the iMic on my iBook, it's a great 
product. (The Griffin iMic provides a line/mic input and a line output to 
a USB interface -- vital for 'Books that don't have line in. It's 
basically a small outboard D/A converter, and a very good one for $35.
