Soundcard help needed...

electrogrimey · 2010-03-07 17:49:40

Been trawling the internet to find cheaper alternative to the Audio 8 DJ, as €400 is way out of my budget. I'm under the assumption that a lot of that price is paying for the scratch timecode functionality, which I don't need.

Been trawling the internet to find cheaper alternative to the Audio 8 DJ, as €400 is way out of my budget. I'm under the assumption that a lot of that price is paying for the scratch timecode functionality, which I don't need. I've found a few soundcards with 8 outputs, so I was wondering if anyone who knew a bit about soundcards etc would see if they look like they'd do the job, or what quality they'd be.

GIGAPort AG USB Sound Card - 8 RCA analog outputs

ESI GigPort HD - 8 RCA analog outputs, seems to be aimed at DJs (can't tell the difference between these two...)

M-Audio AudioSport Quattro - Seems like it has 4 jack outputs, although I can't see if they're stereo or not

M-Audio FastTrack Pro - 2 stereo RCA outputs and 2 TRS jack outputs, that makes 4 stereo outputs right?

They're about all the options I can find (for under €200). The GigaPort HD or the Fast Track Pro look the best, can anyone say which would be better quality?
