High-end measurements

For a high-end stationary system, we recommend the Digigram VX 222 or one of the high quality analog cards or digital cards (e.g. Prodif).

For a high-end portable system, we recommend the card VX222 by Digigram. Alternatively, you could use a laptop with a docking station and install one of the high quality sound devices listed below.

We recommend the two Digigram cards VXPocket (laptop) and VX222 (stationary PC) since they are of high quality, support most of the WinMLS features (such as level and mixer calibration) and have been tested well. Several professionals have been using these cards with WinMLS for more than two years with good results reported.

The VXPocket is a PCMCIA card to be used in a laptop and the VX222 is a PCI card to be used in a stationary PC. It is an advantage that the cards have the same drivers, this means that if you have both a stationary and portable system, they will be very similar. The card has a stereo line/microphone input. We also like that the mixer has 0.25 dB steps, which makes setting the levels simple. The cards can be ordered from us. Note that Digigram has released a 4-channel PCMCIA card, PCXpocket440 that should be suitable for 4-channel measurements. We have not yet tested this card.
