I don't really think it's worth it. The Delta
1010 has a nice
rack-mount setup but the features of the two are almost identical. Let
me muddy the waters a bit more - I'm using an ST Audio (Hoontech)
DSP2000 C-Port. This is basically the equivalent of the EWS88MT. It
cost me about $50 US more than I would have paid for the EWS88MT. The
difference between these is that the C-Port has two, balanced XLR
connections on the front and a headphone output. I figured that I would
occasionally use the XLR inputs without having to hook up a mixer. I
used the headphone out up until I got a Behringer HA4600 headphone amp.
The C-Port and the EWS88MT both use the envy24 chipset. The EWS88MT has
8 balanced 1/4" I/Os while the C-Port has 8 unbalanced 1/4" I/Os. This
hasn't been a problem for me so far. One nice thing about the EWS88MT
is the ability to mount it in the computer. This is handy if you're
planning on hauling it around for recording sessions elsewhere. BTW, I
checked the shipping on that unit from KTJ to you and it runs about $90
US - which puts it in the same range you can get it for there.
Thank you very much for your interest. I'm a bit frustrated. I have a DiO
2448 and I am pretty happy of the sound quality. The only problem is
recording, in particular with jack, because I have to record thru s/pdif
and I get sporadic (but very irritating) xruns. If I launch jack with the
default device this doesn't happen, but in this way I have no inputs (the
s/pdif is subdevice 2).
I also have a Roland SC D70 that recently gained audio I/O thanks to mr.
Clemens Ladisch, but with it jack cannot start at all. I use this as a digital converter
for the Midiman.
So I have 2 very good devices but I still doesn't have a good multitracking
environment (you know the program I'm talkin of...). ecasound has given
better results as it can run without jack.
In addition, I am very exited and ready to start using that software
productively, so I decided to buy a new card. They are expensive, and I'm
not rich at all so choising the best now to fit my needs it's very important.
For now I'm searching something used (especially delta 44-66) or if I have
to buy it new, I think I'll go with Delta 44.
Thank you again
PS: I liked your songs ;)
