USB sound sample rates above 48 KHz are problematic. There are efforts to overcome the limits but they end up with special drivers etc. The bulk of the USB audio interfaces are based on Burr Broun chips which do virtually all you need. There are some "pro" models for around $150 - $200 that have high sample rates etc, but they use special drivers to work. Emu has several high performance boxes to consider. Linux support is problematic. . .

I'm looking for one for time as well as sd radio use. Should have the best separation, best s/n, highest digitization rate, 24 bit, etc. Any recommendations?
