Well, then Windows or Apple will make you very happy with their "our direction or the highway" option ... > There has to be something that works well under Linux that isn't M-Audio > mediocrity. If the only choices are M-Audio (cheap, and sounds like it) Hmm, don't know about that. I've heard the output of a Delta 1010LT - doesn't sound "cheap" at all to me. But maybe you don't consider it a cheap product? I have heard an Audiophile 2496 output through the stereo system of an (excuse me) audiophile here and it definitely doesn't sound cheap. There or here (I got one myself.) Maybe you don't consider that one a cheap product, either? Now Behringer I would consider cheap, but it doesn't like it to me, either, so maybe I'm just not such an audiophile ... > and RME (way too expensive), then I think I'd rather spend my money on > good software that will help me make music.
