[MV] Thank you, and a question regarding Orange USB Card

[thechuck at mac.com]

Lorin (and everyone else):

I haven't used the Orange Micro USB card specifically, but I have 
transferred files from my Olympus DS-2000 recorder to a Mac using other 
third-party USB cards.

Transferring data through the Orange Micro card from the DS-2000 should 
not be a problem. I doubt you could use the pass-through feature to 
dictate directly into iListen from the DS-2000 through the Orange Micro 
Card however. This is because most add-on USB cards do not support 
Apple's implementation of USB Audio.

So as long as you are using the Orange Micro card just to transfer 
files from the recorder to your computer's hard drive you should be OK.

Best Regards,

Chuck Rogers
