Now that also sound interesting. As you might have guessed, I intend to use
the interface with Pd and I also like to do recordings of interviews. Now I
already have an Oxygen 8, so I wouldn't be midi-less if the audio card
hasn't got Midi. I looked a bit around at various online vendors and it
seems, the Edirol boxes are quite nice and a bit less expensive than the
M-Audio cards. The UA-20 is 239 EUR at my dealer, so it might fall into my
intended price range. More outputs might be nice with Pd but I fear, that
the bandwith might not be sufficient?!

I *might* shell out a bit more eventually.
i would reccomend it then... when i bought mine i saw it as an
investment... then again with my kind of work i have use for the 4
outputs particularly...
one thing about the Quattro is it isnt bus-powered, its mains powered
... this i find helps because its less of a drain on my modest little
thinkpad 600E... (PII 366Mhz, 224Mb ram)... but for portability's sake i
did enjoy trying out the Edirol UA-3 - if you're not likely to want as
many inputs, and if you want something thats really light to carry
around with you and has bus power... then i'd suggest going with the
UA-3... cant remember what the UA-20 is, i dont think i got that one on
review but it might fit the bill better....
i had absolutely no problems running the UA-3 once i had usb-audio set
up too,... just plug it in, get alsa up and running, and go....
