<div>Hey,</div><div>on ubuntu, I have good experience with:</div><div>-echo layla 3g (8in8out,2preamps, phantom...)</div><div>-m-audio delta 1010LT</div><div>-m-audio delta 44</div><div>-rme hammerfall dsp + multiface, both PCI and PCMCIA (note: the output jack sockets are too close to each other, which can give you a hard time connecting more than 2 cables with 'sturdy' jacks.)</div>
<div>all those worked pretty much out of the box</div><div><br></div><div>bad experience with:</div><div>-firewire soundcard using 'freebob' driver</div><div>(I think the brand was motu, or presonus, or focusrite, one of those, I don't remember exactly...but, while it was officially supposed to work (checked alsa soundcard matrix) it didn't...)</div>
<div>I haven't checked recently, but I still have the impression that firewire soundcards are poorly supported on linux...</div><div>-m-audio delta 66 no sound, don't know the reason, is anyone using this card ?</div>

in my desktop i've got an m-audio delta 1010 lt (used from e-bay), which<br>
worked "out of the box" (8 unbalanced analalog i/o and midi from a "cat<br>
o' 9 tails" which plugs directly into the card). its big brother (delta<br>
1010, no "lt" suffix) has a nice breakout box (balanced) and uses the<br>
same chipset ("envy24", alsa module snd-ice1712). iirc, the terratec<br>
phase88 uses the same chipset with an unbalanced breakout box.<br>
<br>
latency was ok out of the box (don't remember the numbers right now,<br>
sorry), but i had to do some os-level tweaking to get things working to<br>
my satisfaction (realtime kernel, irq priorities, pci settings, etc -<br>
all scripted now and available on request). also, i had to comment out<br>
a few lines in the envy24control sources (dedicated mixer gui for the<br>
card) in order to stop my console from filling up with annoying warnings<br>
-- really nothing more than an annoyance; i can send you a patch if you<br>
have the same problem... if you can afford one, the rme cards are likely<br>
to be much better, but my budget didn't stretch quite that far ;-)<br>
