Thread: Selectable multiple input sound card

Hi all,

I've searched and can't find this. I need to input 3 or more (3 will do for now) different sources into the carpc, then select the one I want to use via software and output it to the audio system. I can't find a card that will do just this. I don't want to simultaneously use the inputs, as in mixing them into one output. Maybe I'm searching on the wrong words. Like I say, I've found lots for mixing/simultaneously recording multiple inputs, that I don't want that. I only want one input routed to the output at a time. I know I can simply put a hardware switch in before the input, and manually control it, but that isn't what carpc's are all about. I would like the frontend (haven't settled on a specific one yet) to select the audio/video from my backup cam/sirius radio/aux-in/ or whatever and route it out to the amps. Is there such a thing? I've read that multiple USB sound cards are unstable, and not sure that would do what I want anyway.
