Another sound card comparison

tnelson494 · 16th May 2005

I've seen dozens of these kinds of posts but the systems I'm looking at havn't realy done the toe to toe. I've got an M-audio Delta 66 but we need to upgrade to 8 I/O's. My options are pretty limited with only 300$ I was looking at getting another 66 but I saw on E-Bay that MOTU 1224 and 2408 core systems are under 300. Would the A/D D/A be any better with the MOTU or should I just stick with the 66's? Sorry about throughing another one of these threads out but I'd like some opinions before I convince the band to try out something new.

I used to use a delta 10/10
and switched to motu, I'd say that quality differences between the two is negligible.
the maudio stuff isnt bad at all I just liked the expansion possibilities that the motu offered

Thanks Dave. I just found MOTU's 314 might not do to well with my cpu setup so I'm just going to get a 1010lt. Hopfully I can get it to match up with my 66.
