Can anyone share some hands-on experience on an EMU 404 usb ? I'm planning on buying one for the laptop, seems to have decent hardware for the price. Don't tell me it's not top-knotch -i know that- it's just 200e. But the other choice is Terratec's Phase 26, and I haven't heard so much good stuff about it. BTW, my main concern is latency.

Hi, I've been looking for a good quality soundcard for under 350 € with multi outs, to upgrade my audiophile 2496. It will be used as my main soundcard on both a desktop PC with Powercore cards and a Asus laptop.
I've been lurking on the focusrite saffire le which has 4 analog inputs, 6 analog ouputs for 325 €.
There is a great review about it on sound on sound :

Anybody who owns one could give some feedback ? Thanks a lot. |

I have it
Basically a high quality soundcard. Ive had some problems with it, but I think that is due to the firewire controller on my Dell Inspiron rather than the card itself.
It works very well. But I do have some regrets; this card is mainly for recording audio in my experience. It has many channels, and the DSP-effect only works in recording session, if you use it directly in the suquencer it will drain normal cpu power.
And I think the design of the saffire software-controlpanel is awful.

Just click safely remove hardware from windows & then flip the switch from the back from bus powered to dc or vice versa.

If you're in pc then stick to RME, if you're on MAC then the Duet definitely. |
