great! Thank you David!

the one question I have is, the I/o box I have is interfaced to a pc
card. you can actually set the outs of the box for monitoring from
the control panel of the box. Will that monitor through that pc card?
that is interfaced to the I/o box? Or is that only for multitracking
and syncing purposes? if thats the case, then i will still need a
seperate sound card for monitoring my I/o box ins through a bus in
vegas , correct?

Thanks again!
