I'm going to take the liberty of throwing this out to the list at large.
No doubt this has been asked a million times (heck, maybe there are some
new options since the last time this question came up), but what are
some good two-channel in-out cards (24-bit capable) with MIDI that
really work super-well with ALSA. 1/4 inch jacks for the audio would be
really nice, I dare say, even required. Working on a 64-bit system would 
also be a requirement.

The Echo MiaMIDI is looking pretty good. Any word on how well they work
in 64-bit Linux?

Thanks!
