Hey guys & gals...
I'm getting a Notebook next week in order to set up my Live Act..
One thing I still need is a Soundcard for it. Since I am not satisfied with the Soundcard I currently have on my Desktop-Computer, I thought I'd buy a USB 2.0 card so that I can use it for both the Notebook and my Home-PC (I don't have a Firewire 800 input on my Home-PC and can't afford a "PCI-Firewire - Converter-Card")..
I don't really have much money to spend. I know, however, that the E-MU 0404 PCI card is pretty good for its (rather low) price. How about the E-MU 0404 USB 2.0 card? Here's the link;

great, thanks a lot man! 
is it true that when you for instance have a usb-mouse, that you could get clicks with the usb-soundcard whenever you move the mouse? can't quite imagine, but some guy in another forum told me that this could happen..

Hi Brothers and Sisters
im on a pimp my DAWSystem Trip &
i have buyed a Marian Trace Alpha Pci Soundcard a few days ago.
Features:
1*stereoanalog 1/0 (24Bit/192 khz, balanced)
via mono Klinke
1*Stereo Digital 1/0 (24Bit/192Khz)
via chinch
3*Midi Output/ 1*Midi Input
Digital DSP Hardware Mixer
tdm TDM SyncBus(if i need i can sync to another card;)
I have heared and read the best from bevore I Ordered them it should be quality like rme ...and and and... My result by Playing my Projekts is that it sounds verry good much dimensions better than with ac 97 on board The main characteristic of the TRACE series is the newly developed high speed hardware architecture, which guarantees data transfers with ultra low latencies and practically without CPU load. I think it was a god buy with a cheap price. What did you think over this?

(Marian should pay me 4 this-pm me pls:)

Hi Punit!
You mentioned that you've been working with Audio Kontrol for the last 2 months.
I have a question which is very important for me:
Can you work with both 44.1 kHz and 48.0 kHz with low latencies?
Because with my Creative Soundcard I can only work with 48.0 kHz with low latencies, with 44.1 kHz I have to work with very high latencies. And sometimes I prefer recording with 44.1 kHz..
Best wishes,
Human

yeah, used to happen with my Creative Audigy 2 NX sound card, whenever i double click to open a folder that could be heard on the speakers but dosen't happen with Audio Kontrol .
About the audio latency part i'm not sure as i use it for DJ'ing & not for production. Why don't you try the Audio Kontrol forum.

Hello mates
sorry because I didnt read all this thread pages (the recent ones from page 12 and so on..) and I dont know If it's already answered this question
but I hope you forgive me
anyway
Does anyone use the Presonus Firebox bigger brother ? the Presonus Firepod ?? what you that have this interface have to tell me ?
I'm planning to buy these two interfaces the firebox and the firepod too...the bigger one to keep at home and the little one for work on the road
I really dont need all that preamp's but I think its also cool to be prepared for recording bands and analog stuff
so...my question goes for the ones that have the Presonus Firepod...what you can tell me ?
love and light
peace out
Gus

i am still love my emi 2/6 more than my traveller cuz it's never give me any problem of finding it and very happy with it's latency. i wish it was made with one phantom pre-amp would be just perfect. however i still need to juggle with tek issue with traveller. so my winner still emi2/6, too bad apple bought their creative field
there is no such big bang, everything is the center of expansion |
