Trying again, I accidentally sent this off list the

So I can add, I anyway will test to use two PCI cards, at least for
MIDI, for audio would be nice too.

It was off-list?!

effectively zero latency jitter.
This doesn't work nearly so well when there is more then one sound card
Good to read about this issue. I always disable the on-board audio
devices, but I would add a second PCI card to my PC and sync it with the
already installed sound card, so I better don't do it. It at least would
be nice to have several MIDI IO by simply using some cheap Envy24 cards.
Unfortunately those cheap cards seems to use just one of the two MPUs
supported by the Envy24.
