Hey Robert, nice to meet you here!
I think i'll buy something like this:

Compared to the M-Audio device it has good quality and can later be used with
a laptop. But there is one thing that I don't understand yet.
Most devices have I/Os but can a Input be also a Output? In that case there
has to be a DA and a AD on the same port. So this device has 8 INs and 8
OUTs which can be used full duplex.
I think that's what I would need.
Greets,

I'd expect that you would be able to get even better sound quality using an
RME card... though at a considerably higher price.
Several years ago we did some work (at my day job) with Hammerfall cards
and I recall that these cards provide their data in an noninterleaved
format. Since this is what you generally want it is possible the CPU load
will go down since decoding/encoding isn't necessary. On Wed, 01 Jun 2005 12:32:10 +0200

And, what are the minimum period sizes for both cards?
64 for the RME afaik, does the Delta manage 32?
my delta 66 handles 32 frames just fine :) I can even go down to 8
[just running jack though. haven't used it for anything serious, as the
idle cycle load is already at 20% with this on my 1.2 ghz athlon :). no
xruns though]
As the delta 1010 is basically the same chip afaik, it should give
identical results..
