In our final app we hope to use 3 x NI PCI-6143 DAQ cards for
24 channels of 16bit ATD. However, until we have suitable
DAQ cards it would be good to be able to develop and test
our system using the simple ATD's in the sound card's that
are present in all of our development systems. This
would allow us to develop and do preliminary tests before
we have the real DAQ cards available.
A sound card interface would also be usefull for other
simple ATD requirements and although you can use ALSA
directly it would be good to be able to use the Comedi
API for all ATD requirements.
I guess from the reply that this is not available ?
