I use two Delta 2496 cards set to 64 samples latency, and monitor through Reaper 100% of the time when recording analog input from my mixer, like bass, guitar, acoustic instruments, and vocals. I frequently have things in the chain like compressors, EQs, reverbs, or amp sims while tracking.
I use a headphone distribution amp that is inline with my speakers so whether it's just me or me plus others tracking, I just turn off my nearfield monitors, and turn on my headphone distribution amp.
If I wanted or needed to monitor direct, I can simply pull one fader down and another up on the Delta cards mixer applet, but I have no problem tracking with a reported latency from Reaper of 2.4/2.0ms.
