hey skewbe

if the purpose of the diode it to keep the voltage to the soundcard uner .775 volts so the signal does not clip above 0 DBV, wouldn't it work as well to just make a voltage divider circut?

If the input impedence of the soundcard was 20K then use a 400K resistor to the input not grounded. That would be something like .5 volts to the sound card. You wouldn't need to worry about loading up the injector signal that way.
