Heh... actually it's ALSA, on Debian Linux
Cheap as in basically the cheapest thing I can find that's supported by ALSA and also has a MIDI in port, though if I could find something not too expensive that also had wavetable synth that would be great...
What's so bad about Creative? Didn't they basically invent sound cards?
Hmm, a bit of poking around on Micro Center for a Turtle Beach card turns this up as their low-end model:

It even has wavetable! Now to see if it's supported by ALSA... hmm,
www.alsa-project.org seems to be one of those sites which brings down my net connection when I visit it
