How bad is 2 ms latency?
I'm trying to decide upon a sound card and
I've noticed that the Creative Sound Blaster
Audigy 2 has a 2 ms latency, but offers
"hiss free" audio fidelity at 106 dB SNR.
The Delta 410 has zero latency, but its $200 US.
I would personally not choose Audigy, or any Creative card based on the
EMU10K1 chipset. These chips do all their processing at 48Khz. In other
words, a 44.1Khz signal comes in, is resampled to 48Khz, processed, and
then resampled back to the original sampling rate.
Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Luke
