Line-in recording better through Audigy or X-Fi? XP or Vista? 44.1KHz or 48KHz?

I use X-Fi and it's worked out just fine so far. I can't tell you anything about Audigy, but as far as sampling rate is concerned - go with 44.1kHz, whether it be X-Fi or Audigy, I don't think it makes a difference if the recording source is say, 22kHz and you record in 48, it only takes up more space.

How ya doing, buddy?

- weird bass/treble levels/control (pro cards will have an adequate default)

So true, so true. That's one of my recent problems with my soundcard, it seems to have completely cut the bass. It's really strange because I never recall making any permanent changes of that kind.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
