I'm looking to upgrade my Delta 66 so I can record at least 8 analog
channels in. I considered the 1010, but since I already have an RNP, Edirol
UA-5 and a 1604, i've got PLENTY of mic pre and phantom power options so I
don't need anything fancy, just good ADC/DAC interface with 8+ analod
ins/outs, i don't even care so much about digital (again, the UA-5 does
digital). What do you all recommend? Thanks!

Hmmm...the Delta 1010 (at least the one I have) doesn't have
mic preamps or phantom power. Not fancy, but has eight
pretty decent A/D/A, balanced I/O channels and S/PDIF.

If you considered it, what convinced you it wouldn't work
for you? At the prices you can find them (and given that
your workstation can support them), you can load up on 16 or
24 channels worth relatively inexpensively.

The Delta 1010 has only line inputs and line outputs. You'd still need your
existing mic preamps with it.

I suspect that he thinks that any female XLR connector is a mic
preamp.

hey I dont stereotype all females as just some "piece of equipment" to "turn
up my volume"......anyway, it was a simple case of confusion with the 1010LT

Could be, but he's safe on that count with a Delta 1010. Its analog I/O is
wall-to-wall TRS.

You're probably thinking about your Lynx Cards which use XLR for line I/O.

Right, I have one of each. The 1010LT has female RCA jack analog I/O except
for the line inputs for channel 1 & 2. They are Female XLRs. No phantom
voltage is provided, but there are jumpers on the card for setting their
gain.

the Emu 1820m sounds *amazing" and fits your basic desription. best
buy in audio land, period. The same top 192khz converters as in
Digidesign's top boxes. Completely excellent impementation.

Don't cheap out and get the 1820. get the 1820m.

Run, don't walk to the store.

Change out the mobo on your computer if needed. It's that good, and
that worth it.

No discernible difference from his Delta 66...except
all the incompatibilities with chipsets and sequencing
software.
Glad you like your card anyway.
Just another (contrary) opinion on the EMU card.
