That's right 10 tracks in all, 8 audio and 2 midi. Untill now I've been using a Tascam US428 which I thought was pretty good but the sound quality on the Delta 1010 is amazing. Basically you get perfect studio quality with no hiss, pops or crackles and zero latency. Other USB interfaces are very powerfull but still have a certain degree of latency especially if you record a very long stereo/multi-channel wav (eg - full song from start to finish in one take).
PCI cards may be old technology but as the man says, "if it ain't broken don't fix it". Your CPU won't suffer with this at all, I have yet to experience any noticeable latency. Highly recommended. Check out the site for the full spec: http://m-audio.com/products/en_us/Delta1010-main.html I picked a brand new one with all of the add on software on E-Bay for $359, way below retail price. I did a lot of research before I bought it, I was also looking at one of the Creative EMU cards buts decided against it after reading bad reports in a lot of forums. M-Audio Delta 1010 seems to be the best value, most stable and best quality for the money.
