I like the SoundBlaster Audology series. It is very good. If you want to go
very high end, there is the Turtle Beach and others along that line. It all depends on your budget and needs. -- Jerry G. ===== "Rick" <> wrote in message news:zlotc.569158$Pk3.265150@pd7tw1no... where can I learn about different types of sound cards? im looking to upgrade mine but salesmen all have different stories to tell about whats a good one thanks |

It all depends how good you want to make it and what sounds good to you.
The very best would be an audio card which is more expensive but picks up much more sound and a richer bass sound but if you don't want something that good there are many good cards to choose from. An Apex was good but I am not sure if they still make cards. Others that were considered good were Turtle Beach and there was a Roland but I don't know if they still make any cards. Some people go with the Audigy. Are you looking for both good audio and good midi well for midi you can check out sampls sounds on the websites of companies that provide the midi sounds.
