Soundcard issue
I have a new soundcard, which is an M-audio Audiohpile 2496.
to my dismay!! I bought the wrong bloody Midi cable for it, so I can't
connect uit Yet to my midi keyboard.
however I can connect my keyboard to my onboard soundcard?
My question, can I have two soundcards running simutaniously? all I need
the onboard soudncard is for the midi/joyport so I can connect it to my
midi Keyboard!
Any taker?
