Thank you all very much for the input! This really helps me narrow down my decision. I will probably go with the Delta 44 for now. I was a bit unsure as to whether have the XLR inputs would make much difference, but for what I am doing it probably won't be that big of a deal. Oh, and Jan. AWESOME writeup! Very thorough and well detailed. I think it will help me greatly (if I can ever get ardour to compile!) Thanks very much!

All of these are well supported. | |Jan | | | | On Fri, 2003-02-14 at 17:23, Kai Vehmanen wrote: |> On Fri, 14 Feb 2003, Bryan Koschmann - GKT wrote: |> |> > 2 - instrument microphone (XLR) |> > 1 - vocal microphone (XLR) |> > 1 - keyboard w/ midi interface |> [...] |> > for this.
