Luke, Kdenlive or other free softwares are ok for editing short or long projects, with or without compositing and effetcs. However, most the time, open source video editor can not work with broadcast quality (timecode sync on video and audio, 4 audio tracks, ...)
Ralph, I agree with Len, you don't need a pcie sound card, pci is fast enough for audio (actually, usb2 is fast enough...) RME did new pcie version of their card likely for the mac pro. And the RME driver has been developed by an independant guy, not by RME officially. This guy may not have the time anymore to work on the driver. Or he still have a pci RME soundcard, and he might find that this is good enough. About midi jitter with usb sound cards, I don't know. I use an Akai pmd18 without any issue. If there are some tests I can do to check, let me know. It might also depend on the midi chipset, no ?
