Great, thank you very much for the report!
This seems quite good.
Concerning the direct monitor, by default have you some input sound
routed to output? I mean without playing it back again with a software.

Have you some noticable output delay when playing an instrument on input?
I want to use it to record music from my band. Recording each track
separatly, while playing other tracks. So i need no audible latency, no
delay between the moment a note is played on the instrument and this
note is heared on speakers.

Last thing, what kernel and Alsa version are you using?
For now, i'm running 2.6.8 with Alsa 1.0.4. I hope i will not have to
update one of them.
Thanks,
