Hi all,
Apologies if these questions have been asked before I can't find a definitive answer.
I need an audio interface to work with my thinkpad X60 running Ubuntu studio for live processing. At least 2 in 2 out.
My main program is SuperCollider and the main issue I for see is latency. With the internal sound card the latency 11.6 ms, which of course is very noticeable.
Would usb 2 be adequate for this or should I go firwire?
I've tried Motu ultra light, which I know is not supported, so was not surprised when it did not work (but I have heard of some people getting it to work).
I've also tried Focurite Saffire 6 USB with no success, I've read there are issues but I'm not convinced USB 1 would be up for the job.
I've also read that in order to use a firewire interface you need a real-time Kernel, where Ubuntu studio has a low latency Kernel?
I am fairy new to the world of Linux and moving from Mac.
Any audio interface recommendations and advice greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Saul
