10 out of 10Feature:
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.

9 out of 10Feature:
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
yes
no

10 out of 10Feature:
The breakout box is solidly built with a sturdy cable of adequate length.
Quality:
A well made product. It seems sturdy and could easily be used on the road for recording gigs due to it's compact size and portability.
Value:
Awesome value! System requirements let you use this card even with older computers to get great quality digital recordings. You can't buy a digital recorder with the quality this offers anywhere near the price.
Desirability:
This is a great product, even if it looks ordinary, the features and quality are outstanding. Don't be fooled by fancy packaging, this may look like a plain Jane, but it's a sweetheart when you take it for a ride.
Sound:
The sound quality is great, as good as much more expensive cards.
Support:
I haven't needed any support on this product because it has worked flawlessly. That's the best kind of support, not needing it.
Overall:
I expect I'll be satisfied with this until I can afford a real digital recorder that doesn't have the quirks of Windows crashing. If you have a computer and want to record some music, this is what you need to do it with. You could spend alot more if you want, but this definitely does the trick.

1 out of 10Feature:
4 ins, 4 outs. Pretty basic.
Desirability:
Decent mid-level card once you get it working
Sound:
Sounds good - very clean, low latency, no crackling or popping.
Support:
Support really s@@ks. Only 9-5, BAD web site. Drivers will not install correctly in win2k without assistance from tech support (instructions on web site will NOT work).
Overall:
Install was EXTREMELY frustrating. Drivers/install utility really suck.
