M Audio sucks. If they went out of business, the audio world would be a better place. Smearing in the high end? tons. Smearing in the low end? tons. Absolute shit sound? 100%
You'd be better off mixing through your 1/8 inch port with Metallica blaring in the background and your TV turned up full blast on snow. Drivers? lol. Their website should have a date at which point they put out something worth a shit for sound quality. Probably the year 2179.

once upon a time maudio used to be great with drivers, support, so-so on quality, but since they got bought out by digi they've been going downhill into the consumer grade area.

my Delta Soundcards works good under sp3, no difference to sp2

what a big surprise

you will have to wait a year to see the first beta.

What about USB MIDI? I'm using Axiom 61 - I must say no problems in that area, although I have M-Audio NRV10 firewire audio interface/mixer and it still lacks Vista/XP 64bit drivers and current drivers on Vista are crap.

Anyway does M-Audio USB MIDI drivers work in SP3?

my omnistudio usb works fine the last drivers released for it were in 2002, i think, so it's positively mesozoic, but still.

m-audio suck in a lot of ways, but i haven't noticed any

Smearing in the low end?

oh-oh me-too me-too (here are my 2 weeks later 2 cents)

I've used M-Audio since the Midiman days and have been a satisfied customer so far.

Now...maybe this is because (for the most part) Im highly unproductive when it comes to my setup and am very much a newbie to home recording as a whole.

I have a Delta 66 and did a decent amount of research before buying it. From what I saw M-Audio had a pretty good rep when it came to PCI cards (insert countless awards and articles on the old tried and tested Audiophile 24/96 here).

I've not really had any problems with it so far. Im running XP, with a Q6600 and 2G of RAM. The latest drivers for the thing were from 4/07. Browsing around the forum I've heard a bunch of trash talking about them since they were bought out by Avid. I honestly dont even pay too much attention to that sort of stuff and didnt pay it much mind when I heard.

Anybody out there with a similar set up have the same sort of experience with the Delta series as I have?


Hope I dont live to put my foot in my mouth on this one...

I have an audiophile 2496 and it works flawlessly.
I don't really know whether i have sp3 cause i always just install the new updates without thinking about it.
I would expect the cumulative fixes i have are all part of sp3.
So uptill now no worries.
