M-Audio DELTA 44 24/96 PCI Digital Professional Audio Card Review

M-Audio DELTA 44 24/96 PCI Digital Professional Audio Card
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use this card with a Windows XP box and it works just fine. Installation was no problem, and I didn't have any pops/clicks the other reviewers noted. The is about the cheapest "professional" soundcard you can get. The sound (recording or playback) is basically perfect - no noise whatsoever. The breakout box is great since you don't have to keep going behind your PC to make connections. It also reduces the noise you'll pick up if you're doing any recording. The outputs are 1/4" TRS jacks, and you"ll need 1/4" to 3.5mm adapters if you want to connect to any regular computer speakers. I use these with Alesis M1 Active 520 monitor speakers and the sound is wonderful.

Edirol UA-25 EX USB Audio MIDI Interface (UA-25EX) Review

This product is compatible with Windows 7 64-bit. Seems to be working fine for me. You do need to download the Windows 7 drivers from the Roland website (they are not included on the packaged CD) but it works great. I haven't put it through all its paces yet, but the setup was a breeze, the sound is crystal clear in both recording and playback, and I'm not getting any pops or dropouts.
I got this to replace my old Tascam US-122 because they weren't staying current with drivers and it was wonky under Vista and totally unusable under Windows 7, so Windows 7 compatibility was really important for me.

M-Audio US41750 Audiophile 192 Hi-def Aud Card Review

M-Audio US41750 Audiophile 192 Hi-def Aud Card
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
After suffering through a variety of products I discovered the M-Audio 192; (I was partial to the brand because of happy experience with their Micro field recorder). After a reasonably painless installation on a PC with Windows XP, I ran the "Wave Profiler" in SONAR Producer to profile the new card. The result: What was formerly an annoying half-second MIDI latency dropped down to instant response!! Better yet, immediately after installation I turned all volume levels to MAX on my outboard mixer: Dead Silence! I wondered if the card was actually installed. Then turning the volumes down I played some music: Astounding presence and clarity. How much is absolute silence worth? A LOT! This card is worth triple the price.

The midiman delta 66 is an awesome piece of hardware and performs as stated in the documentation. The sound is very clear and when no audio is being played its also very quiet. I am very pleased with the ease of installation and configuration as opposed to other sound cards at this price. Oh Heck try one I'm sure your will be as happy as I am.
