2ms latency soundcar
View this Thread in Original format

I am looking for a soundcard that can handle 2ms latency. I don't really care about 96Khz output, 44KHZ is fine. Any suggestions?

Might want to check out the RME Multiface w/ the Hammerfall DSP PCI card. Not sure what price range you are looking at, though. That will probably run you around $1000.

If you're lookig for cheaper solutions, something with ASIO can go down to about 11ms.

There's a new thing out called Plugzilla which is a hardware rack unit that can host 8 VST plugins; even VSTi instruments so you can use all those plugins on stage for example. It's expensive as hell but it's supposed to have almost no latency.

something like that would do just fine, what soundcards support ASIO with 11ms?

An M-audio Audiophile 2496 or a Terratec DMX6fire would be more than good enough.

I own the latter, and I can achieve a 3 ms latency with it. The Audiophile has less features but a slightly cleaner sound.

thanx for the info, I did some research and both of these cards seem pretty attractive, so I am having a hard time on deciding which card to get, since they both have their pros and cons :conf:

Indeed...I got the TerraTec DMX6fire 24/96.

Nice one :) It even got ASIO-2 Support which means you can create your tracks in Dolby 5.1 :p

The latency is fine too of course :) 4ms :p

Really as long as you have latency lower than 10 ms it's real good. You won't really notice much change below that.
