Hello
I have already gone through sound card thread but I still need to ask this question- which sound card :-(?
I am planning to buy M-Audio Audiophile 2496 but wanted to know if that one would be suitable for electronic music.I dont want to buy something and then come to know that I should have bought something else.
One thing more, how dramatically can a soundcard improve the sound.At present I am using Legacy Audio Drivers(i know they are not good).
Thanks

You will notice the difference immediately assuming you're using monitors. I did.
Audiophile 2496, people will tell you there is better for the money around. But as a starter sound card it can't be beat. Been using mine for 3 years and I'm happy with it. Can't say I've tried anything else with my setup, but it does the job. I have little need for lots of inputs and outputs so its basic functionality suits me fine. Stability - never had a problem, not once. Latency is very low too (6ms/5ms in/out respectively). |

i had this one for a while too, it worth the money u will spend one it. When you get more money and feel the need for more in/outs then u swith it. People say it a sound card for beginners but u can make killer tracks using it.
