Very quick and clean build. Very UNLIKE Audacity, which I've spent more than a day on. They went nuts with autoconf, and Solaris is an afterthought. Hank

What are you planning to do with that card once you get it. I've got a project going to do some "remastering" cleanup on data taken from old phonograph records, and have had a thread going in rec.audio.pro. There is a dreadful thread running on Linux vs. Windows for audio over there which I've been trying to dodge, but except for acknowledging that I'm running Solaris and saying I'm building from source, most of my discussion over there has been on audio. I'm a bit underwhelmed at the software available, and the incredible bloatup with GNU-isms in some of it. Seems that point-and-click with xWidgets is extremely high on their must-haves. I've spent probably 12 hours straightening out the mess in the Audacity distro, with things like recursive configures wiping out files in directories and accepting no substitute Solaris builds for things included in their build tree. Plus a couple of genuine bugs in the c-code. Hank Hank
From: trs80 on 22 Feb 2010 13:08 thanks very much Hank. Ill look into OSS. It may be the key.

nothing so noble as your doing Hank. Im locked into using the Sun Solaris but only need to do some simple 4 channel recording of voice quality audio.
