So my Delta 1010 soundcard has just died on me and I can't get it serviced because I bought it off E-bay from the US and I'm in Europe.
I need a new card fast and haven’t a clue where to start, here's what I'm looking for:
-Multiple analogue ins and outs (1/4 inch and xlr) so I can hook up a couple of DI's, a preamp, Eventide Harmonizer and leave them set up without having to switch cables around (as per the Delta)
-Midi in and out so I can hook up a midi keyboard and DAW controller
-I also want phantom powered XLR's (1/4" also very important)
-As close to 'zero' latency as possible
-Something not overly complicated to set up
-Rack mounted is fine, it can take the place of my Delta.
PCI or firewire?? The other alternative is to trade in my HUI and get a DAW controller Tascam or M-Audio (if this is the way to go I need suggestions!)
It was the lack of XLR's and phantom power that bugged me about the Delta, everything else was great for the money.
Just in case this is important, I'll be hooking this up to a Dell Optiplex pc into Cubase SX3, I'll be running a lot of VST's and also a UAD-1 card.
Helpful suggestions welcome and worth rep points!
