Greets to all,
As in subject, I'm gonna buy a Delta44, and I would like to have some
impressions about its reliability with JACK, as I am still bugged with
the occasional crackling problem (with no xruns) with my SB Live and
other consumer cards I own, but I think it's a poor hardware design
issue or an ALSA driver bug, as suggested by Paul Davis et a. on this
list (but, hey Lee revell, have you got that problem with SBLive?)
So, any Delta44, or M-Audio and JACK enthusiast here?
Thanks in advance!
ciao

New subject: [linux-audio-user] Going to buy an M-Audio Delta44... How good is it with JACK?
I've been using a M-Audio Delta 1010 (with the ice1712 driver) for the
past 2 years or so, and it has been running great.
With jackd, I can run with a period of 64 samples, with no xruns or
pops, no matter how many background tasks are sucking up I/O and CPU.

Oh yea - my Delta44 has been running great for years. Wish I bought
one of the ones with more channels!
The only problem I had: briefly, ALSA forgot how to read the ID on the
EEPROM of my card and the driver wouldn't load. That problem seems to
be resolved in recent ALSA.

Hey,
I too bought the Delta44 (following the same crackling problems with
PCI128, then its death, and more crackling and lack of low latency of
the chaintech AV710 el-cheapo card). I only had it for a couple of months but
so far I am very happy.
I run jack almost perpetually and get very few xruns (a couple a day)
which usually happen at high system loads and lots of audio being
moved around. So far I have been using a conservative -p 128 -n 3
setting, I can live with it so far.
cheers

Thanks to everybody for the good advice! I am now a happy owner of a
Delta44, and I must say I am impressed by the sound quality and
stability, a real good piece of hardware!
I am considering now the opportunity to have a speech at the Linux Day
on Nov 26 in Italy about Linux as a music production environment, as it
seems that the weird occasional crackling problem has gone away...
Happy music to everybody!
