Hi Dan
As Frank Barknecht wrote, the Quattro is, at least for me, not the best buy. I had problem to get it working properly on debian 2.4.22 with low latency patch and jack (tested on two machines). And i've heared some rumours that it will "never" work on 2.6.
On OSX the card is working but i've stumbled over some strange behaviour in MAX. The card crashes after 2-5 minutes and i had to reset the samplerate to get it working again. (i'm not using OSX often, so it's probably something known which could be solved with some clicks)
so better wait for Frank's results. cheers marc

List,
I'm looking to buy a sound-card. According to past posts on the list, both the Midiman Quattro and the Ediroyal UA-20 seem like good options with reliable Linux and OSX experiences. Has anyone had recent experience to the contrary? Is there another 4 channel I'm overlooking? PD, Jack...
Has anyone unplugged these during a performance and moved them to another machine, leaving the original behind playing through the PCI (or built in) card? Mac and Linux.
Also, do either of these reduce CPU load? Do the PCI cards do this more effectively? Enough so to change my mind?
Thanks in advance, Dan
