I'm using a Delta 44, but I'm thinking about replacing it since it has
no XLR ins for mics. Maybe an Edirol UA-1000 or UA-25 and a headphone
amp (as mentioned before).
When I bought an interface I chose the Delta1010 because of it's
balanced I/O - leaving me free to upgrade my mic-pre's whenever I like.
RE the bigger picture;
A small 'fix' to my mixer (documented in it's manual) allowed the 4 mic
pre's to be assigned to independent outs, thus leaving the
tape-monitor/output section free for headphone amp duties (I also added
external switching to route the playback/monitor to hifi, monitor or
none - independent of the headphone).
Add to this the Envy chipset's zero-latency monitor, and I have the
choice of low-latency 'wet' monitor, or higher latency 'dry' monitor.
I don't know your equipment, but this may be a useful setup for you
(single headphone of course).
