I'm not sure how much impact your soundcard has. For me, both the
pitch shifters are not particularly good as transposers in that they
cause substantial alterations in the timbre of the sound, not just the
pitch. compared to the very-non-real-time stuff done by the SCRIME
guys (Inspect is the s/w), its really awful. Compared to what by
Quadraverb does, its fine. I've always viewed these things as
colorants as well as shifters - transposition needs to be done via a
different mechanism (hence the excitement about Acid when it came out).
