 Outside of a professional environment ( and a few places within ) it seems
 there is use for a USB "sound card" with nothing more than analog/digital
 conversion.
 No gain pots, or anything like that.
 Could be mic or line level in, and line or "head phone" level out, but
 NOT pre-mono "for your convenience" as it's not to be used with a web-cam.

 Such animal seems extremely rare, if they exist at all. ( AND don't
 "require" a windows driver )

 Oh, there are the Chinese phone-out and pre-mono ( parts count, I'm sure)
 mic in for around $3 on the web, and I suppose for my purpose I could
 adapt two for stereo ( more correctly, dual mono ) input with some
 software tricks to un-mono the mic in, but it's just so much work !

 For my purposes, relative analog voltage level, not actually audio, so 
 I don't care what the connectors are.
 Unfortunately, what I have found either has the circuitry, but disabled,
 ( no traces on the board ) or is a $$$$ USB oscilloscope.
