Here's another option I've had good results with.
Not sure how it compares to M Audio rigs.
Maybe others could weigh in on this.

Line 6 makes various versions with more inputs.

Gets your Instrument or Mic into the computer with USB.
No latency. Relatively inexpensive.

I have the earlier UX1 with Gearbox effects program and it has a zillion possible effects models with different combos of virtual amp and speaker cabinets.
Or you can run the signal in dry.


carkins - any audio interface can get signal in to the computer, but none with no latency.

Line6 products have hardware monitoring, which routes incoming signal directly to outputs. However, all interfaces with a/d conversion into the computer have latency.

I'm 99% certain that the USB drivers for the Line6 products will have a latency or buffer setting. Usually this is given in number of samples or in time.

Look for your ASIO driver panel/applet and there should be adjustable latency or buffer parameters in the panel.

Here is one example of a Line6 ASIO panel and the buffer size is on the right. You'll see that there is no zero sample buffer size. http://line6.com/support/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-144599-10962/310-348/UX1.jpg

At 512 samples as shown in the example image, that is going to be relatively small latency.

Just wanted to clarify the description of 'no latency'. Again, that is just for the input monitoring.
