[ardour-users] A decent sound card for Ardour

[Sciss]

i'm running a machine with ubuntu 6 and rme 9652 since a few days.  
the drivers are part of alsa, the hammerfall mixer and setup dialog  
are in the alsa-tools-gui package. i haven't tested ardour yet, but  
it works with supercollider -> jack, so it should be fine.

ciao, -sciss-
