That is USB, isn't it? How is the latency with soft synths? That model goes back to at least 2005. Don't know what they have now.

I just Googled it.  Looks like they have a Cakewalk branded version now.

I also thought about getting an Edirol. A friend has the FA-66 which sounds great but he doesn't do any multi-tracking with it. So, I don't know how good the firewire would work. I might also be better off with a USB version. I like that the controls are all hardware with the FA66.

I love my Edirol ua101. I was getting more fed up with creative's products
as my demands grew larger, but the edirol works well with soft synths and
for recording and playback.

Right. Thanks for the feedback. I am a media producer so I guess I'll be
looking around still.
thanks!

The real problem people have with Creative cards is poor drivers and
software support for low latency multi-track audio and multiple plug-ins
for digital audio work stations such as Sonar..

My older Audigy 4 pro sounds quite good and recordings are fantastic.
But, asio is a bit dodgy with some soft instrument plug-ins in Sonar.

I have not had experience with the X-FI cards yet.  They should be just
fine for basic stereo recording and surround playback.  But, if you are a
musician or media producer, you would be better off with more professional

gear.

I wish it was easy to compare the sound of different audio devices.

actually  that is not really true.
the  quality of the creative cards are quite good.
better then some of the other brands i have heard. other then that i
would
go with  some others that i have heard but are well out of a persons
price
range  but still the creative cards are great and  the x-fi  series is
worth
the money that you would spend on it.

Hi. From the many experts and audio buffs I have talked to Creative seems

to
be pretty low-end. Does anybody have reccomendations for a sound card
that
is inexpensive and superior quality to Creative. I think people just buy
creative because of the name. Similar to Bowes. Anyway thoughts?
