The
M-Audio USB Audiophile is the affordable, no-hassle USB audio and MIDI
interface - the USB version of M-Audio's popular Audiophile 2496
awarded Best Soundcard by Computer Music magazine. USB Audiophile
delivers 24-bit/96k quality with great dynamic range and noise specs
because it uses AC-powered components that deliver better fidelity than
bus-powered circuitry. The included Mac and PC drivers let you
independently scale bit depth and sample rate (up to 96k) to deliver
the lowest USB latency anywhere...whether you're on stage or in the
studio.
