AV/DV Card

[James Hays]

Why not pay a bit more and get a Sony Digital8 camcorder, instead? 
Most models will: 1) play Hi8 tapes digitizing them for Firewire 
transmission, 2) pass thru analog Hi8 from your present Hi8 camcorder 
to Firewire DV, and 3) give you a good DV camcorder (that uses Hi8 
casettes).

I've never used mine for audio, but it should take analog audio input 
and produce an audio DV stream output.
