8 inputs xlr, the sampling frequency converters Class A, USB connectivity (I do not have firewire), low latency, the software comes with Studio One ... all this led me to buy this card.

I use with condenser mics for recording acoustic instruments (guitar, violin, bodhran, mandolin, Irish flute ...).

I use a less powerful PC (win xp sp3, 2GB ram, AMD 1.2 Ghtz, 70 GB HDD only!) And it works great!

UTILIZATION

Worry-free installation, no driver problem (use the ones offered on the site Presonus).
For the moment, I have not tested with more than 2 tracks simultannées recording and playback 6. No problem.

GETTING STARTED

Everything is really clear, I have not struggled at all. Just read the manual and download the latest driver.

OVERALL OPINION

For 1 month. Previously, I was using a Edirol FA66 I sold. It worked well but I did not have a FireWire port on the PC (motherboard has never accepted PCI Firewire, I had to take an old Toshiba laptop - it worked anyway).

I like stability. What I like least, not much, but it still a bit warm but nothing serious to find something.

Yes I remake this choice (at the same time do it a month, but I'm not disappointed).
