Thanks for the various info on sound cards David. It may give me a few leads for locating sources for working out kinks with this WavJammer. Hopefully I can find some discussions somewhere about what might be causing these clicks in its recorded signal. Probably most people wouldn't consider them that noticeable. But I'd really like to be able to record reall nice, clean audio. Perhaps one of these other cards may set up better on the L70. I'll have to keep an eye on EBay. The Roland card is attractive. But I'm guessing at this point that no one reading the list at this point has had to deal with working out problems with poor recording quality of a sound card on a Libretto. Please bear with me if I post I post these questions again in the next couple months, hoping to catch an returning former lister.
