Anyone recommend a good USB soundcard?

Post by lcmorley »

I am currently going to be working away from home over the next few months, and will unfortunately be away from my Oasys.

My studio comprises the Oasys, and also a desktop PC which performs my studio functions including Cubase SX 3.0, and an M-Audio Delta 66 PCI soundcard.

I have never had any issues with this setup in the past, and am looking at using my laptop whilst away. However, I will not be able to take my O, or my desktop, and so am looking for a portable solution for the moment.

Could anybody recommend a good USB low-zero latency soundcard? That said, I am thinking the only option is USB with a laptop. Perhaps someone could enlighten me if I am indeed wrong here. I don't really see there being much of an option of expanding the laptop internally.

Hope you can help. :)

If your Computer has a Firewire input (which is faster than USB), I highly recommend this product:

If your Laptop dosn't have Firewire and just USB, I recommend this product:

They offer an outstanding audio quality with extremely low latency for a very affordable price!
