low latency windows 7 64bit usb soundcard recommendations

Hi all,

I would have thought this would have been an easy google but it seems not.. I've been looking at various soundcards for my new laptop purchase but none of them seem ideal:-

m-audio transit
Terratec DMX 6 Fire USB
EMU 0202 USB 2.0

I'm not fussed by multiple inputs at all I just want it ...

Re: laptop choice // the eternal question

Have you seen the new dell studio 15 with an i7 on an offer for £670 at the moment? I'm very tempted myself. Seems incredibly good value.

Dell studio 15 i7 720 or Macbook Pro 2.53gz

Hi all,

I'm looking for some advice on buying a new laptop for using Ableton. I'm torn between what to get because I do like to use lots of virtual instruments so cpu is important but I'm going to have to run xp and dual boot linux if I don't go for osx. I've seen lots of messages about bad audio ...
