Thanks for the advice, but I was looking for a pendisk size external card...

I did try the Asio4all but I still have latency...

Meanwhile, I think the solution will be... the br80! Small, portable, independent, and I can switch to any computer if needed. I also considering investing some time with energyXT or reaper (instead of cakewalk/ sonar) since they work both in Windows and Linux.



Lets see!

I just came across these online:

I haven't seen them in stores, but I guess it is the closest to "pen sized" that I've seen so far.

Wow! Thanks SdC! This is what a meant with portability. However, I think I changed my mind with all this talk around the BR080 and its capacity to work as an audio interface (and standolone  ;)).

In the meanwhile, I've been (very slowly) trying out Energy XT, a DAW that claims works in Linux and Win. So far I only used in Win, and it runs and opens really smoothly. I'm not comfortable with the interface yet. No so friendly as reaper/ cubase/ cakewalk, but probably it is just a question of time.

According to the Reaper website, the 32-bit Windows version runs in Linux under Wine. I haven't tried it myself.
