I opted for an EMU 1820 6 months ago for its ability to allow you to route an input signal to any output. She is primarily a "table mix" digital mixer for two keyboards and a microphone. The presence of XLR inputs and preamps also helped my choice. Quality (announced, I could not check other than with my ears) converters have completed my decision. It is not given, but with her it is quiet for a while.
UTILIZATION
Installed without any problems on Windows XP. The manual ... my faith I did not look much, use the setup program (routing I / O) is not immediate, you have to click and it crashes a few times before as the config you want. Advantage, it is recorded once and for all and no one ever loses. Once this configuration made it very simply be used in either ASIO WAVE, nothing special to mention about that.
GETTING STARTED
Top. I have no problem with it. Sometimes (I suspect the eve of my old machine to be for something like this) the driver says "Hardware not found, please reinstall". It does not stop working, but I cut access control software. Annoying but not fatal.
It works for me in Sonar, Sound Forge, sometimes I use it with Media Player. it all works perfectly. I have long used a latency of 5ms, which proved to be a bit limited for the recording and replay sometimes (I have an old machine). I went up to 10 (not used me very little VST, it does not matter too much) and there FLOW.
OVERALL OPINION
For six months I use it, it still satisfies me and I am using only a fraction of its potential. The sound is good, it scales well sampling rate (the price of sacrificing high outputs), it is stable. In short, we quickly forget it's there and that's what I think is what I would do if I choose to do it again.
