Thank you Olli,

what latency do you get, when using the 18i20?

I planned not to buy Behringer, but OTOH, as long as ADAT should work
with reasonable latency and without hiccups, the Behringer FCA1616
and UMC1820 are very interesting, too.

However, for all USB devices the reviews are entirely ambiguous. Some
claim that there are no issues, others claim that there are issues, but
nobody ever gave detailed information. Did the sound device USB shared
an IRQ with e.g. mouse USB, if people experienced issues?

Regards,
Ralf
