MaxB would probably tell you his Fiat Punto is every bit as fast and fun to drive as a Mustang GT convertible. Seriously, I don't know what planet he's on.
Please talk with me... The planet He's on it's the same fucking planet you are on.
About Fiat Punto... take a look at the end of the message.
Do you think your Delta is a Mustang GT convertible??

You are wrong mate! It's a soundblaster with 4 or 10 inputs without the EMU10k chip.
Like I said, soundcard makes a difference.
I have always used the same mics and there is a HUGE, that's right HUGE difference in sound quality now that I've changed cards and gotten a decent preamp!
What a pro!!! You have switched from a bad soundcard/preamp to a decent soundcard/preamp...
Listen, the problem, mainly, was the preamp, not the soundcard. Yes, if you was using your MOBO soundcard I agree with you... Delta is better! But if you think SBLive it's just like your MOBO soundcard then you are wrong again! Just for curiosity: you are monitoring through a pair of self powered Trust speakers connected to the Line Out of your Delta, right?

Uh...to get a decent take on an acoustic guitar? Hmm... Mic a drumset?
Ah ah ah
So you think this is the right way to do?? You put the mics directly into your soundcard?? Imagine your soundcard as a recorder... Do you want to put the microphones straight into the recorder?? Yes, but only for karaoke purposes. No Chris. You need to put your mics in the mixer, and the mixer to the soundcard. In the mixer you can tweak all that knobs, you know, to have a "decent take on an acoustic guitar". What? Do you want to record the hihat, toms, vocals, backing vocals, ocarina, berimbau, etc, everyone on a different track?? Well use a multitrack-tape recorder, not your cheap Delta soundcard.

About Fiat Punto.
It is a neat looking little car, something my wife would like to drive. I don't think you could get them in the US though?
Gordone: call General Motors and asks. They are in someway related with FIAT. But the import taxes may costs as much as the price of the car. Anyway any european car it's too small for yours american Starsky and Hutch roads.

Fiat was making some decent quality cars in the 90's (Tempra, Tipo and Punto). Not sure how things are going lately. They actually sell the Punto in Brazil, but it is called the Palio
The Palio and the Punto are differen cars. Not the same.
Take a look at fiat Bravo and the new Fiat Stilo.
Fiat has not been in the US for quite some time, but I did hear rumors Alfa Romeo was planning a comeback. I'd love to get me a 156!
Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Autobianchi, Ferrari, Maserati... These autos are all FIAT.
If you all are interested, FIAT sells also Tanks, Planes, Bombs, Mines, Boats, Yacths, Steel, Paper, Pens, Asphalt, Chimic Elements and Space Activity-related things. Sorry, no soundcards.
Brzilian... If you want a 156... You can buy one 2nd hand for about 2.500 euro.

I would have said something else (Yugo, maybe), but since our misguided little friend is apparently in Italy
(WTF is Yugo??)
My dear you don't know anything about my knowledge in music...
I know it's "strange" to hear that your delta it's just like a soundblaster.
But this is the thruth. I know you have spent the last 6 months collecting half-dollars coins to buy your Delta... But keep in mind that it's not a pro card and you are not a "pro" with your mics connected into the 4 inputs of your Delta!
so I wanted to pick a slow Italian car. Not that there's anything wrong with a Punto quality-wise for its uses...but it just re-emphasizes my point. A Punto is fine for point-a-to-point-b just as a Soundblaster is fine for games.
180 km/h... It's a slow car?? It's not a Ferrari for the speed and it's not a Cadillac for elegance, but it's not a slow car.
One of the features of the punto was the speed. The testimonial for the Punto 16v (240 km/h, It's a slow car?) was Michael Schumacher (FIAT employee
) and this caused a lot of problems some years ago because the youngsters start to splat their faces on the walls trying to emulate Schumi with their FIAT Punto. It's not a slow car. Again, just like for the Delta, you picked the wrong one for your example.
A Punto is fine for point-a-to-point-b just as a Soundblaster is fine for games. If you want your computer to be a great DAW, though, you need a little more "horsepower.
Please, Christopher... What you are saying are only "castronerie".
FINAL STATEMENT: if you own a Delta card and you are happy clap you hands and take your Delta with you, just keep on working with it. If you own a SBLive! and you are happy with it clap your hands, and just keep on working with it. But please don't try any comparison, and don't break the balls at this poor italian boy.
MaxB
Oh, yes: if you own a Fiat Punto and you are happy... don't clap your hands while you're driving!! It's a very very fast little italian car... and Schumacher... 16v... 240km/h... splat!!
