bbhack « Robust & powerful »
Published on 01/25/12 at 15:04Originally I chose this card to the number of I / O and routing capabilities, but also because it was one of the few cards "semi pro" in USB 2.0 available at that time.
Also add the fact that, relatively new to capture audio gear, I was reassured by the fact that it was therefore deemed Roland gear solid. Six years of daily use have given me because at this level.
Originally I was shooting with Cubase on Windows XP. For three years I use Mac with Logic with the same happiness.
UTILIZATION
The drivers are very stable, at least I never had to worry about either of the two configs.
It has already been pushed into a corner with a record 8 tracks simultaneously. The small notebook of time (a P4) morfler a bit, but it will be out. Re-iterate the experience with a newer PC and carefree, I think the concerns of the period were rather soft and even the little USB Controller piercing and quite comsumption resources ...
Having no live project since qq time I use it in config home studio, for both models scratches / low that "mixing desk" for my audio devices (amps, preamps, drive).
Latency is imperceptible and the direct monitoring almost perfect.
GETTING STARTED
It could not be simpler to get started.
The online manual is useful for understanding the subtleties qq internal routing. Otherwise, it works intuitively.
It works fine on a Windows or Mac OSX. Linux is not supported and probably never will be.
OVERALL OPINION
Six years of loyal service without flinching!
At the time this acquisition represents a relatively tidy, but time has proved me right, as well as the strength of the relevance and authorship of the USB (Remember that time when 90% of AFiens swore via firewire ...)
+ What I like:
- The quality of converters
- The robustness
- The routing capabilities
- The number of I / O
What I like -:
- Lack of a dedicated channel to the headset (the volume works on the outputs "pregnant" and headphone, impractical to move from one to another)
The value for money I think is great, especially considering the robustness of the equipment.
