Re: Multichannel audio cards

[Christof_Faller <cfaller@xxxxxxxxx>]

I recommend a MOTU device (www.motu.com). Or the
EMI 2|6 is a good low end USB solution compatible with
Laptops.

If you want to do your own real-time processing I recommend
that you use the ASIO API or MacOS X CoreAudio. Both provide
low latency and a lot of control.
