M-Audio Mobilepre soundcard/preamp

Anyone tried this wee beastie:

My Soundblaster MP3+ has crapped out again so I just picked one up on eBay. Being able to combine a preamp with a soundcard and have bus powered will be quite handy.

I hope it works.

Looks like a nice piece, Steve. Let us know how it works out.

Steve,

A friend of mine has one of those for his laptop and it seems to work great.

There's all kinds of cool products in the M-Audio line. I use one of these on my testing computer:

I should get it in a couple of days, but I imagine it would be a real boon for those who like to do measurements outdoors, since you would need no power for the laptop, card or mic.

Cheers

Well, got it in and it seems to work just fine. It's a bit larger than I had in my head, but the lack of need for any power cord makes up for that. It's good to have something that replaces my external soundcard and my mic preamp.

Cheers

Steve
