I have been using an 828II for the last few years and been pretty happy with it, But now I am wondering if there are any (Core Audio) interfaces out there that allow you to listen to softsynths and use fx plug-ins while recording vocals. It seems to me that this has been the one big limitation of so-called near-zero latency monitoring.I hope I am not just saying the obvious, but anyway does such a beast exist?
