Don,

     Your inference is right on. You CAN run any digital software that 
will play with a USB external sound card. The card in the K3s will show 
up as an external card. That is exactly what I do and is one of the 
reasons I bought my  K3s. I freed up some desk space by not having to 
continue to use my SignaLink USB.

73,
Barry
