Can I use VAC with a 6.5 and SmartSDR?

I'm confused! "what new?" All the talk about DAX, I got the impression I must wait to use my 6.5K on digital. But I saw a post, maybe I misunderstood, but can I use my paid for version of VAC also? I've asked a few on this site privately but didn't get a reply. If so...pse advise. pse & tu

Bill, You cannot use VAC with SmartSDR. DAX (Digital Audio eXchange) is a feature that will be added to SmartSDR in a later release. It will provide the functionality that VAC provides for PowerSDR. The difference is that DAX will be a part of SmartSDR, not an external 3rd party program that you mist purchase. PowerSDR has the capability built into it to connect to VAC, SmartSDR does not. Until DAX is implemented, you must use a hardware soundcard interface, such as a RigBlaster or similar, connected to the accessory connecter. 73, Ray, K9DUR1

Thanks Ray That's what I 'thought'. But then I saw something that made me think I misunderstood. Neil just showed a easy minimal cable mess system using my sound card. I'll use that till Dax. Thank you again. PS, I use so many of your little apps. Even the Voice device, seeing as my throat only has so many calls left in it.0
