I currently have a Presonus Firebox and I'm really happy with it, but as I plan to move/tour and get a tiny new computer, I'm looking for a smaller soundcard (otherwise, even the AC adaptor of the Presonus will be heavier than my computer...).

Do you have any experiences with good (I guess usb) compact soundcards ?

Does it exist ?

Isn't the Firebox one of the smallest already? Isn't it bus powered? Or do you have an Firepod...

I am quite happy with the portability of my Quatafire which has the same size as a Firepod but is out of production now...

Anyway if you have a netbook, you won't have firewire, but Presonus has the Audiobox:

hard to beat in size or price (unless you sacrifice quality...)

If you have heavy power supplies (with transformers) replace them with switching power supplies. There are universal ones with settable output voltage designed for notebooks...
