First of all:
Thanks a lot for the responses I got on the list and by PM.
The links sent to me kept me busy some days ;-)
I have received (very positive) reactions regarding M-Audio Delta 1010,
but nowbody talked about RME Hammerfall cards. Is this just an accident
or do this cards have any drawbacks (i.e. regarding Linux support) that
I should know of?
The combination of a PCI (DSP) card and the Hammerfall Multiface looks
interesting to me. How is it running under Linux?
One of the qualities that let's me consider it (beside M-Audio Delta 1010)
is the possibility to use a loooong (firewire) cable, so I could put the
(noisy) computer in another room to record low level acoustic stuff.
