I am extremely, extremely happy with my RME Digiface + Expresscard
interface. It literally works Out Of The Box with Linux. You just need
the alsa tools package for the HDSP mixer and configuration tool, and
you are set.
The bad news is that it's really expensive. Face it folks: recording
equipment costs money. Ardour is free (or cheap) but the hardware still
costs money.
