Some advices for a PCI DSP card?

[Vincent]

Hello all!

Very simple question:
a. I have 500€ to spend in a DSP card.
b. I dont care about ADAT digital in/out, neither SPDIF digital in/out (they all have), the only I/O I need is at least 2 analog Inputs and 2 analog Outputs.
c. I also need the stuff to stay in my computer rack (no break-out box but break-out cables if necessary).

Any ideas, guys?

do you mean a "normal" sound card or a DSP card (like UAD1)?

[Vincent]

What do you mean by a normal sound card?
When I'm suggested to a "normal" stuff, I first answer NO and then see if I have time to think about it.
I already have a small ECHO MiaMIDI GSIF compatible which is not so bad, but I need more...
I've seen this: RME 9632 HDSP, but I can't figure if there is any analog breakout cables (6.35 jacks), I don't care about S/PDIF, I'm musician.
It's the same price with the UNIVERSAL AUDIO UAD-1 PROJECT PAK and I cannot see any breakout cable here too. Do I have to add an expensive BO box to that?

Hello.
For this price, I've bought an E-Mu 1616M : excellent converters (Digi002 ones), very good preamps, and good DSP effects. I'm quite satified of it.

[senso]

does the E-Mu 1616M works fine with Usine?

Thanks, guys, me choice is made, I'll receive it soon. Its a RME Hammerfall with an expansion card for 4 analog Out.

As far as I've tried, no problem with E-Mu products, Senso. If I notice anything weird, you'll know it for sure.

[senso]

cool.
You can imagine that I can't test all sound cards.
I have problems with Terratec series, probably solved in the next release.
