So I've searched around on these here boards to see what I could find out about hooking up a second sound card, and I've got one question:
Does the Echo Indigo PCMCIA card override my onboard sound card, or will it give me the dual soundcard that I'm looking for?
The Echo Indigo dj card will do everything that I'm looking to do, but naturally, it's more $$.
Anybody have any experience with these cards, preferences?
Echo Indigo (basic) vs. Echo Indigo dj

Assuming you have DJ software that will support both soundcards you will be able to use the Indigo for your main output and use the internal/headphones for monitor.
I know Charlie in St.Louis has the basic Indigo card. And that is where i got my knowledge.
I use the Sound Blaster MP3 external box. It's cheap, it works, but it is an extra something you have to haul around.

it'll work as jerry described, but be sure to up your buffer size in the preferences, so the amount of work the computer is doing doesn't make the song you are playing skip or gap.
i had to switch to winamp since the program i was using didn't have an adjustable buffer size, and i had some issues with the indigo card and gaps when i first used it.
