I can get 11ms without issues or 5ms (sometimes even less when the setup is simple) with this card. But on some distros I had to disable my ethernet adapter. Are you sure you don't have some heavy process or server running? Also, I load the realtime module with the parameter any=1. I know this could be less stable, but its worth if you need to record your music without interruptions and with a low latency. cesare p.s. Please guys help me with my UA-20. :-( Christoph Eckert wrote: >>There is, just ignore all this and use the realtime LSM until the >>distros get it sorted out.
