Best Zorro II sound card?

8bitbubsy · 13 May 2011, 10:02

I know there is a thread like this, and I've read it, but I am after a more specific usage...
What Z-II sound card is most suited for tracker module playback (8+ channels)? I want one (if exists) where you have several "hardware" channels so the CPU does not need to mix it all into two channels. I read some about Prelude, and it seems to be a very bad choice for 8+ chn module lovers.

Delfina

Delfina DSP or Delfina DSP Lite?

Toccata.

If it comes to sound quality, I always pointed to the Delfina because of it's superior Codec chip. However, I've had one customer who complained about a high-pitch beep that you hear if you crank your stereo all the way up.

I investigated the issue yesterday and found that we can solve it in software. Download the latest delfina.library from icomp.de (direct link to the archive from the delfina product page).

IMO any Delfina card should be more than OK - decent audio (24bit) DSP on board make Delfina far more flexible than just interface + CODEC cards (like Toccata)

Does anyone know if Delfina Flipper would work connected to Catweasel S-Class Z-II card thru 26-pin connection? Product page only shows connection to Buddha card and some others, Catweasel Z-II not specified.
