Looks nice, but normally I only have 2(-4) outputs. And I probably only
can afford the Mackie 1402VLZD Bag...

Nope, not yet. Maybe it's the hardware, I'll take it to office
tomorrow, where I can acces Win2000 PCs to test it. I need midi, so
I'll keep digging.

The audio part of the UA-20 is quite good, IMO. But you should better
not buy it on mailorder, like I did, but instead go to a shop and test
it with your hardware. You can preconfigure the alsa-modules, then
it's plug'n'play (or die).
