Hi all, I know it's OT, but I would like to get an advice from Linux Pd users. I'm about to buy a soundcard with up to 8 analog I/O for max 500euro/pounds and want it to be compatible with Linux (I mean, I would like something working ""out-of-the-box""). I've been advised about the Terratec Phase 88 Rack.. Any other suggestion?
Hi Marco, i have two soundcards.
- edirol fa 101 firewire, and works out of the box since old freebob
driver and now with the ffado driver. (~ 250/300eu second hand).
- rme multiface I pci (or pcmcia). works out of the box (300/400eu)
both cards are "gnu/linux" ready, both are goods, but rme is better (lower latency, more stability, direct hardware routing, adat in/out)
ciao
