Creative labs is an excellent sound card when you are looking for audio editing which is great for a more professional look with it comes to the audio.
The incoming audio is not really monitered through the recording interface but rather through your system mixer. Example: you're recording the line in from your sound card by telling cool edit which input to record, you're also at the same time listening to your system mixer by sending the same input to the output of your sound card.
A flash audio recorder works by recording audio onto a compact flash card. The amount of audio you can record depends on the size of the memory on the flash card.
It is a solid sound card, not one of the best but a good deal for the money you spend.
Audio quality (or fidelity) and how and what we perceive good sound to be is very subjective to humans. Most sound cards that are regarded as "the best" in the consumer or in the semi-professional market are designed to accurately reproduce the audio from the source (the computer,cd player, mp3, microphone) as accurately as possible without adding any modifications (artefacts) to the sound. The idea is we hear the recording as the recording engineer intended. Most 3D sound cards create the 3D spacial effect by using phase cancellation tricks, where they take a small amount of the audio from one channel, invert the phase and put it through the other channel. This cancellation of frequencies gives the listener the physco-acoustic effect of sound coming further out the speakers, perhaps even from behind the listener at some frequencies. This effect maybe regarded by some people as pleasing and desirable but by others (myself included) as a distortion to the sound and not something I would like to add to the sound. Is 3D sound card the best audio? - It you think it is...it is! Human hearing is very subjective.
Quite many hours actually.
no
You sound card should have a audio in port.
Sound card (or Soundcard), sometimes called Audio Card, is an internal computer expansion card and integrated circuit (IC) that emulates and facilitates the input and output (I/O) of the computer that is controlled by a program. It has been used as a component of multimedia services such as audio and video editing, music composition, educational needs, and sound emulation. Sound cards must be connected on the expansion slots of the computer's motherboard such as PCI, ISA, and many more. A typical Sound card should have outlet for microphone, Sound in (where you the sound can be processed in), and Sound out (where sound has been projected).eg: Allowing you to hear sounds from the computer and recording yourself with the help of a microphone.
If you already have a sound card, an additional sound card is by no means necessary. However different sound cards have different features, including differing audio ports, additional audio ports, higher sound quality or remote control among other things.
Green audio out. Blue audio in. Red mic in.
