Best replacement audio interface for a Thunderbolt interface?
TL;DR: Any personal experience-based recommendations for an audio interface capable of running stably at a minimal (sub 5ms) latency? Ideally without crazy settings like 192khz / 16 sample buffer, but if your audio interface runs at those settings without issue then I'd be willing to consider it!
Background
I'm currently using a Thunderbolt Presonus Quantum 2626 as my audio interface. I love it. It sounds just fine to my ears and the latency is ridiculously low. I regularly run my live audio setup at 48khz with a 32 sample buffer size and my overall round trip latency is a mind boggling 1.83ms. I had no particular reason to switch away from this piece of kit.
I just went through the process of upgrading my PC, and even though I specifically picked a motherboard to have continued support for this audio interface (ASRock x870e Taichi)... I'm getting regular audio crashes that end up BSODing my computer. I've tried everything I can think to fix the issue, and at this point I don't see a way forward that lets me keep the 2626 unless AsRock miraculously fixes their Thunderbolt implementation with a BIOS update or something.
Thing is, I'm really used to having these insanely low latencies. I love that I can do indirect monitoring with effects at speeds that rival many audio interface's direct monitoring latency. I run a gate, compressor, eq, and denoiser on my mic with live monitoring at all times just to make my audio sound great for comms/streaming, and so I can hear what's going on in my room. All of that would sound terrible if my latency was higher.
What I'm seeing so far is that USB can't even come close to touching the speeds I'm used to. I've seen multiple reviews for USB-C audio interfaces where the settings I use would be around 8-10ms RTL. Even at crazy settings like 192khz / 16 sample buffer, it seems like USB can still only get down to ~3-4ms RTL. USB just isn't as bare metal as Thunderbolt, so I know I'm going to have to accept a bit more latency.
So yeah, any recommendations?
