List of Audio Interfaces

[TomClayton]

Hi, all! I've gone through all the forum posts so far and compiled a list of audio interfaces for our use.

They're split into 4 categories:

1. Audio Interfaces Confirmed Working With JamKazam
   
2. Audio Interfaces Confirmed Working With JamKazam, But Not Working Well
   
3. Audio Interfaces Confirmed NOT Working With JamKazam
   
4. Audio Interfaces Mentioned, But Not Yet Determined If Working With JamKazam
   

If you're using another interface, or if you're using one on this list that falls in a different category (such as Mentioned..., and you have it Working...), let me know, and I'll update. I'm not sure if others can update this post or not, but feel free to message me or post a reply here, and I'll update it. I've included links to product pages where enough information has been provided in the post, and a product page still exists. I've also noted if the audio interface has been discontinued.

JamKazam admin, LMK if there's a better way to do this, or a better place to put it.

Thanks, all, for providing info on your experiences with these audio interfaces, and may your latency while jamming ever be low!  ;-)

1) I started by trying to use my Alesis Multimix USB. This works, but the latency is high (20 ms). Alesis say that this device doesn't require a driver, as it is USB class compliant. but there is some mention of using ASIO4ALL to improve latency. I have downloaded this, but can't see how, in Windows 10, to make the two work together. Does anybody have any ideas?

2) Meanwhile, I am running Jamkazam on my other older laptop, which nevertheless appears to have a better built in sound card. (I can't find out what the device actually is - Windows jut calls it a High Definition Audio Device). I am just using the built in mics, plus headphones. This is actually working reasonably well, although sound quality isn't great. However, I remain a bit confused. My local stats (when I am in a session) show latency of 6ms (OK), acceptable jitter, but a red blob for frame size at 10 ms, and therefore saying that my overall latency is poor. 
I have tried reducing the frame size (whatever that is) in the audio booster.That gets rid of the red blob, but increases jitter. I found a youtube video by a JK user, which suggested increasing the minimum processor value in W10 power settings to 100%. This does indeed solve the jitter problem. but doesn't really help. as when I reduce the frame size I get a lot of distortion.
Again, any ideas, or is it just that what I've got, with 10 ms frame size, the best I can get with this sound card? 

3) Would I gain a useful improvement by buying a recommended audio interface?

Lot's of questions I'm afraid. This is not a gripe with JK, which  is working well, and is quite an impressive piece of software overall - this is the best one we have found for rehearsing on-line during lockdown, and we did our first recording the other day (just waiting for the final nix to be uploaded). However, if I can get it working better then it could be a useful tool going forward.
