Hi,
I was considering the m-audio stuff, but Im not so sure on its
compatibility in Linux. I did post in here and got few replies. Most of
my searches on google seemed to show poor compatibility and major work
to get going, I dont need or want that. While controlling the clock
might be important to "real" musicians for me, well I dont even know
what it is.....What I do want at this stage is a good recording.
regards
Thing

Unless I am mistaken, most of the Creative Labs stuff is pretty substandard
since they don't allow genuine controls over the word clock for the audio
playback/sampling rates.
I remember seeing a website test report on the Audigy cards and it revealed
tell-tale noise at anything but 48KHz playback/recording.
If you're willing to spend that kind of money on an Audigy Platinum, may I
suggest you consider the Audiophile 2496 made by M-Audio. Or the Revolution
7.1.
They are clean cards, and offer genuine multi-rate controls with good
quality. You can find independent audio evaluations online.
