I have been asked to recommend a solution to the following.<br>
<br>
A standard PC with the additional ability to record to wav files via 6 incoming baseband audio channels + 6 ouput sound ports for retrieving and editing the recorded wav files + two test ports that will allow an on-board IEEE4888 I/F to generate a test signal that can be looped through the system + 6 incomong still picture channels for recording still pictures form a camera. Plus a 4 port serial card and 10BaseT card.<br>
<br>
My first thought was to use multiple stereo sound cards but the Interupt/DMA problems came up.<br>
<br>
My second thought is to use a music industry type I/F via a DA/AD device. I have little knowledge in this filed and would welcome pointers from the wide out there.<br>
<br>
My third thought was to use multiple PC's and network them as one system.<br>
<br>
Anyone out there successfuly achieved this sort of thing? If so I would welcome your advice.
