"Stellar Performer"

Feature:
We all know that the less 'features' there are, the better with this kind of professional product. Balanced I/O, incredible sounding converters and 24-bit/96kHz operation will do for me. Some may require more than 4 analogue inputs, though.

Quality:
This is the only part of my PC setup that has lived on unchanged through several rebuilds over the last 6 years. I expect it to still be there for years to come.

Value:
When I bought mine in 2001, it was a no-brainer. Today, of course, the days of PCI may be numbered and the marketplace is infinitely more crowded.

Desirability:
The appeal of this product stems from its top-notch sound quality, rugged construction, exemplary driver support, wide compatibility and ease of use.

Sound:
The sound quality is entirely within the professional arena.

Ease of Use:
Straightforward and intuitive in operation. Compare the no-nonsense Delta control panel with something like the horribly over-complicated and illegible Patchmix DSP (sorry emu owners!)

Support:
You simply won't need any with this product.

Overall:
I will be using my Delta 66 for as long as motherboard considerations will allow.

"can't go wrong"

Feature:
for this price range and sound quality you get all you need..the pros are the sound quality but the cons are you only get 4 tracks for recording at one time which is no big deal..

Quality:
ive been using it since 2002 with the omni studio.. if you are a guitar player just stick the amp simulator in the spdif with out the interface and you can record great sounding music..evryone wants to know how i get my guitar to sound so good...

Value:
come on you can buy a sound blaster for this price if you want to make a mistake...are you a gamer or a musician,lol...

Desirability:
it is no nonsense

Sound:
professional sound.. you will not get better for the money ...alot of the cards that cost more are still not as good

Support:
pretty good...

Overall:
i will definitley keep this and like i said i will use this to transfer back and forth with a stand alone roland multi track recorder
