The UltraLite looks very nice...
for sure something i could see my self with,
though i recently got the yamaha aw1600, and i like it alot, gives me alot of flexibillity.
still i need something better as soundcard than my audiophile 24/96..
the possibillity to adjust levels on the fly is very sweet with the ultralight, amongst other nice featuers, and all those inputs and outputs..
i just bought three new microphones, 2 AKG Perception P 100 and one sure sm57..
so i need to wait a while before i invest in more stuff.
the more you buy the more you need. haha
now i need that headphone amp that i returned, cause i didnt need it at that point,
SAMSON C-QUE8... lots of inputs and outputs, hehe, great for having a live studio recording.

my friends have them both but i can t A/B not the same room , monitors ...the delta don t have midi and digital i/o , i think they are both stable with asio driver.if i was you i ll go for a second hand rme hammerfall ,they are great for the price and later if you want a better sound, you just have to buy converters. |

fireface 800 costs 1700 swiss francs (don't know exactly how much dollars, but surely less than 1600) at www.houseofsound.ch |

Hi there,
I've had a lot of different soundcards in the last 15 years. About a year ago i've bought a apogee DA converter which connected to the optical output of my G5. I was blown away. Very loud and an incredible "low". After about half a year i tried a Benchmark DAC1. I've rapidly sold the apogee.....
If you think virtual instruments can't create low frequencies you should try a HQ DA converter.
It did the trick for me

Just some quick questions for you guys...
As far as i can undestand the card which some people propose with the best features options-better converters etc is rme's fireface 800.
What about the unbalanced outputs of the card ? Isn't xlr output better for the production level?
Also what about the digital aes/ebu format do you have support for that in fireface800 ?
Thanks,
John |

I'm using a Creative Audigy LS and it sucks. I have alot of problems with clicks and crackles no matter what I do. I definately need to get a Pro sound card...Hmmmm maybe I'll shop around on ebay! |

heared that mbox dont work properly with sx!
if you buy digidesign, use protools!
if you still want to work with both of the programs, buy m-audio card...
no other choice man...
hope that i helped you
