I don't know about M-Audio Delta, but about TerraTec I can say only
the best - I have model of the old one, TerraTec 88MT and it works
like charm in both Linux and Windows. Have tested on multiple streams,
recordings - everything is just fine, quality is noticable better than
any average Audigy card.
And I guess I will never complain about ALSA ice1712 drivers, because
they work just fine and have even improved in last years.

Hi.
I am in the process of working out the hardware of my
new personal workstation. This time, I'd like to get
a really good multichannel Pro-audio card with at least
96khz sampling rate, 24bit and around 8 analog channels.
I am looking at:
* TerraTec PHASE 88
* M-Audio Delta 1010(LT)
I can't quite decide between the TerraTec and M-Audio.
Regarding maturity of Linux ALSA drivers for these cards, what
would you suggest? Additionally, I couldn't find anything
which explained why the LT version is soo much cheaper. Is
this only about bundled software, or does the 1010lt version
have less hardware features than the Delta 1010?
Any other cards I might have missed which would fall
into the same category?
What would you suggest?
