Thanks to all for the info on the UA25. One downside of this device
seems to be that at some sites it's listed as discontinued implying
the need to buy quickly if there isn't something better.

The Roland site still lists the UA25, along with a newer 192KHz decide
called the Quad-Capture that was released (apparently) in April.
Anyone tried that out with Alsa yet or is it just too new?

I guess my thickness is in full swing this Saturday morning as I
cannot figure out what the 'Nu Nu' comment is telling me about USB
audio interfaces.

Thanks again,
Mark
