    PCI firewire hub: what latency?

    Hi, I have an ABIT KT133 and I want to invest in a firewire audio interface for the future, and the only choice I have is to update my puter with a PCI firewire extension board, because the KT133 does not have it built in. Will I have the same latency (for instance with the forthcoming M-Audio...

    line6 dsp

    actually my thought was that it may be possible to emulate this on a pc, in the same way that Nintendo or sega game boxes are, and to see if the emulation of a pod or DM4 would consume more cycles than a revalver instance.

    waveArts TrackPlug : how does it sound?

    Hi, I'm wondering if it is worth it to use the new Trackplug, wich seem to be an all-in-one track plugin, it does EQ-gating-compression, or if it is better to stick with Cubase track EQ and use another plugin for gating-compression? The all in one approach seems to yield better sound as all...
