Boy, that RME digiface sounds sweet! A cheaper solution would be the Echo Indigo IO at $179.95. I was using a buffer of 528 samples on a slow 2Ghz Celeron (NOT the newer mobile "M" chip) notebook with no problems. 256 was workable if I didn't tax the system too much. Even cheaper is the free download of ASIO4all which works nearly as well with the notebooks stock sound card. It's been updated significantly in the past year. A buffer of 256 samples doesn't bother me at all, but then I'm probably not a _real_ musician. : ) On 1/12/06, Rainer Thelonius Balthasar Straschill <rs@moinlabs.de> wrote: > On the latency topic, here are my observations. > > The cheap solution: Terratec Phase26 USB. > Works perfect and stable with an output latency of 16ms and input >latency of > 5ms = global latency of 21ms. > Very seldomly clicks at 9ms/4ms = 13ms. > Unuseable at its lowest setting (4ms/3ms = 7ms). > > The better solution: RME Digiface connected to Hammerfall CardBus. > works perfect and stable with 2ms/2ms = 4ms. > unuseable at its lowest setting (1ms/1ms = 2ms). > > I havent' tried optimizing my system for using ultra low latency, as > suggested by RME.
