I have recently removed one of these from a system and as it's a bit of "professional" kit I thought maybe its of some use to somebody ..
If theres anybody out there (in the UK) who wants one of these (or even
knows what it is) then get in touch and you can have it for the cost of
the postage.

Your MARC 2 PRO provides some special characteristics. In the
following you will get a short overview of them:
- Support of 24 bit and 96 kHz
- Balanced analog inputs and outputs
- An integrated SyncBus
- Windows multi-client drivers for ASIO, GSIF, MME and DirectSound
- Multiple card support (upto 4 cards can be used at the same time)
- DAT Marker support
- Latency-free and flexible monitoring
- Using ASIO latency periods of 2 ms are possible
- Wordclock synchronisation
- AES/EBU digital ports
- Electrical S/PDIF digital ports

The four channel Marc 2 Pro is the perfect solution for professional audio transfer of a digital audio workstation and offers uncompromised high-end-features. The balanced analog and digital connectors, including an internal connector for a CD-ROM drive with digital audio output, excel due
to a wide range of driver support and very low latency values. This
features are completed by a wordclock input and DAT-marker support. All features qualifies the Marc 2 PRO especially for the usage in pro audio and mastering studios, post pro and broadcast.
The effective hardware design and a continuously evolving high speed driver suite provide a disturbance-free operation and minimal latency values in all software surroundings.
Flexible routing, start-stop synchronisation of all in- and outputs, sample exact transfer on all channels and direct delay-free controlling of the inputs (zero-latency monitoring) make the Marc 2 PRO the ideal partner for demanding harddisk-recording, as well.

96 kHz support is rather overkill as most people's ears cannot hear
beyond 20 kHz and the Nyquist principle states tha you have to to sample
at twice the highest frequency (to do ADC and then DAC faithfully) so
that's 40 kHz. CDs already support 44 Khz audio....
