[PD] USB Sound "card"

[Bryan Jurish]

moin David,

I just recently acquired an Edirol UA-25 with which I'm quite happy (2
channel analog|digital audio I/O, MIDI).  I've also heard good reports
of the Terratec Phase 26 (are you out there Frank?), but have no
experience with it myself.  In general, I'd advise you to avoid
M-Audio's USB audio devices under linux: I think the best that can be
said for these is that "some of them work some of the time": my M-Audio
Quattro is currently gathering dust in the closet ;-)  If you can afford
it, I think that the RME "Hammerfall" series is the Way To Go (note
capitals)...

marmosets,
	Bryan
