Originally posted by fl0w I'm going to buy myself a M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 which have been recommended by many already. As for your choice of midikb- the oxygen8 I have to say it's an excellent kb with a very good feeling HOWEVER are you sure 2 octaves are enough? I noticed it wasn't for me (wan't to be able to play complex pads for example) so I traded it back in for an Evolution MK-249C. You sure about that? 'cause usually you can't run for example both internal soundcard and a pci soundblaster card without conflicts in O/S. There's probably a workaround or something though.

I've ordered an Evolution MK-249C controller.

Maybe i get a new computer for producing with, im not sure yet.

Terratec DMX 6fire 24/96 vs. M-Audio Audiophile 24/96

what are your opinions? is the performance of the m-audio better?

c'mon guys.. someone must answer my question

I own an Audiophile 24/96 - I don't know anything about the other one you meantioned but I would definitly recommend the audiophile. The only problem with it is that the ASIO drivers can only go up to 24/48 - but I can get 8ms latency at that bitrate. For the price ($149 MSRP) it is definitly the way to go.

I don't understand why your asio drivers don't go further than 24/48. Mine can go up to 24/96 and work fine. Have you got the latest version?

I also think the Audiophile is better than the Terratec. I once read a review on both cards and the test came out better for the Audiophile. Do a search on google and you will find the tests I'm sure.

Originally posted by Maarten I use the M-Audio Delta 1010 LT and I am very happy with it.

I'm looking into buyng this card to use instead of my hammerfall DIGI9652...

well, yeah I know it's somewhat of a downstep in quality but I can't afford a AD/DA-converter for the hammerfall so the 1010LT would suit me much better since I can't even monitor anything from the hammerfall right now and that pretty much renders it useless

is this worth doing or should I just save up and get myself an AD/DA-converter for 200-500$ instead?

as an entry level starter im looking at the audiophile 2496. I also need a set of monitor speakers, but may just settle for headphones for the time being (eek).

I was looking at getting a good midi controller, but being the fussy sod I am, I want at least 4 octaves. This kinda rules out the Access Indigo solution I was looking at

Theres not much difference in price between the 2 and 4 octave versions so you may as well go for 4 anyway. I would get an Evolution one

i keep reading that you should stay away from creative sound cards... but no one seems to be giving any reasons why. what about their higher end cards like the audigy 2 platinum ex or something in that area. im just curious as to why i should stay away from creative.

A vote for Echo Layla 24 - it absolutely rocks!
8 in / 8 out (plus 8 in/out digital if you have
something to hook it up to like a yamaha 03d)
and a midi port.

Using it with Edirol PCR-50 4 octave midi controller
and a steinberg midex 8 8x8 midi interface.

Highly recommended.
