in need of a good sound card ...but which one

[Jim B]

I use the Hercules DeeJay Trim 4-6 for my Timecode setup, although I haven't used it in a while. It's a very good card, I helped Beta test it for Hercules

In the UK you can pick one up for about £165.

imo not recommendable for scratching, too high device latency.

There is more to DJ'ing than scratching mate

Have you had one?

You can get good results with this card, have seen one being used in a scratch routine couple years ago at a BPM show, sounded good to me

I had 2, one broken outta the box, and even at 48Samples timecode didnt feel as direct as with the U46/SL2/Audio6.

It does sound nice, and maybe right for use with a controller and recording (as there´s no input latency) but for timecode I didnt like it.

Also the HDJ-Drivers leave a sh*t amount of ghosts in the registry after deinstalling.

You would need a 6/6 soundcard for Cross (sampler output + aux recording).
