«  Does his taff »

Value For Money : Excellent
This has motivated me to make this choice is the little extras, like the knobs on the adjustable microphone inputs / guitar is cool, the 48 volt power supply by plugging in USB. (This is really a map to start in order to register as an XLR mic and it's really good, it's not upscale, but I have recorded a mixtape and I intend to do yet)

I use it with a Sennheiser microphone Mk4 but also an electric guitar, also a keyboard that I plug in USB live on pc, but the card still reduces the latency really really well. I connect to powered monitor not for the moment I have no money ^ ^ but I plugged into a hi-fi amplifier and I plugged the amp the speakers home theater. I have a little headphone sennheiser.

6GB of ram I have an intel core i7 GTX260 graphics card, screen LG 32 "windows 7 64bit
went to see this is a Studio XPS 8100.

UTILIZATION

Then the drivers .. A bit boring when infact off the pc at all because when first installed, it works prafaitement, but when switched off or goes to sleep so that the pc to just hit the button the map will be recognized but no signal out and is no longer recognized in the audio software using asio. So FOLLOW WELL I tell you! What you should do is that when you have the computer on again (so good on your desktop etc. .. You UNPLUG the card (USB) to your pc, then on the left side of the card you Adjustable with button 3: So you put it like this: REC SOURCE -> analog / SAMPLE RATE -> 44.1 / ADVANCED DRIVER -> there. Here. After quite sure it works, it's not too distracting it takes 2 seconds to make a Turning on the computer.

I used it with Reason 5 is spot on! With such few p'tits cubase settings I think it's going after.

So the number of track I can not say I do not taff with the mass of tracks, I've already done 15-20 carefree.

By setting the max I really reaches 4-8 ms latency! ;)

I put 8/10 because of a lil something to do on again.

GETTING STARTED

Installation is quick and easy, then I'm gonna explain the 2-3 config stuff (it can serve as a tutorial)

I suggest you press the button "CAPTURE" directly to any effects knobs underneath either assigned you a mic or guitar, because if the button is set to "PLAYBACK" effects potentiometers will be assigned reading, so all what you read (tracks, movies, videos ...) will have the effect given by the gallows. Here

also a lil trick, if you want to record sound from a video on the internet or in a movie, simply open your software to record, and then place the REC SOURCE on the left side of the card on "LOOP BACK "Then you press the record button of your software, you play the video or music of your choice and its registers on your track.

The manual is clear if one can read in English ^ ^ but if you have any QUESTIONS SEND ME A MESSAGE I would try to help you =)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since last December (2011) or January (2012) I dunno more too ^ ^

I have not tried many other models, but I found it really complete.

I really like being able to plug my guitar directly above, place the effect button to "perform" Turn back potentiometer "AMP / DRIVE" and have a direct electric sound on an amp speaker as it is really cool! A YES! To hear your microphone directly at the speaker, but especially the guitar, Flip Card! place and below the INPUT MONITOR ON! this is for a return to the speakers or headphones directly, and below you can also turn on the power supply 48 volts!

Very good value for money!
If I had to make that choice, I REFER is on.

But I'm saving to move into the high end anyway =)
