- bullivPublished on 08/13/11 at 13:44 (This content has been automatically translated from French)USB 2.0 soundcard, use home with GarageBand and macbook pro.
USE
Mac, no driver, no concern for compatibility with macosx and GarageBand. I had problems on PC, but it was there 7 years, there are potential conflicts with the sound card integrated on the motherboard, it was enough to disable it.
IMPLEMENTATION
plug and play
NOTICE GLOBAL
10 years and holds up, she fell heavily on many occasions and it still works great. No delay problem. Impeccable for the Direct to disk with 1 instrument.00 - Trantor
Perfect except drivers, preamp, headphone ...
Published on 10/11/13 at 02:57 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I bought this interface to record guitar and vocals, just in order to listen to me and correct me. I plugged in entering the microphone singing and microphone combo.
My choice of this interface was motivated by the price, the correct opinion here and there and little resources to a PC to rotate. (We are still in USB1, it can turn with little memory and CPU). I was able to connect an old laptop that was given to me (although I have since received a workstation slightly less old).

UTILIZATION
This interface problems of co-habitation with the sound cards of all pc on which I connected. Obviously, it would have to do it there (which is not always possible).
On the other hand, if it is disconnected while a program is using the pc crash, but if it is connected during a pc goes to sleep, it crashes too.
As she served me as a PC dedicated to recording, it was bearable.
GETTING STARTED
Installation was carefree but cohabitation with some programs (guitar pro, for example) is laborious ...
OVERALL OPINION
Next record, nothing to say. The quality is there, above what my ears perceive.
Side connection, everything is also: the headphone jack, the headphone mix input / pc, direct broadcasting, I lack nothing.
Or that gene, the preamp input: I do not know judge its quality, but it has no progressive: 1/8 of the race, a weak signal passes to a saturated signal.
I fixed it by buying a two preamp inputs.
Same for the headphone output: my headset is high impedance and the output volume is too low (it is very correct on a low-impedance headphones). So, I had to buy a headphone amp.
In summary, if you have a regular headset and you should not change too often the entry level, it's a great interface.
A remake, everything depends on the likely cost of an interface with a preamp worthy of the name, but it must be much more expensive. If not, well, I'm satisfied.See less21 - haruglory

GETTING STARTED
Xp drivers are stable: no crashes while using
THE BIG problem is that M AUDIO RELEASE DOES NOT SEEM TO UPDATE A DRIVER IN VISTA, and it becomes very painful! It is now over a month that the bone came out and even a version that Beta would be welcome!
Cubase SX 3, LATENCY RULES of 2ms but costs more in the order of 10ms.
the card can work in recording the number of tracks in between maximum is 4.
OVERALL OPINION
Purchase made nol 2006
I like the simplicity of Use
I like not too long update of drivers
I possde staff from other sound card Terratec EWS88MT (unstable), and a Digi002 (top) and a presonus firebox (though no more: too many disconnects but pramp top)
good price quality ratio in win xp
if I were to change I will look at the first follow-up of drivers ... without comment supplmentaire

OVERALL OPINION
I possde Fast Track Pro for about two years and it worked well plutt until I add a Powercore firewire and my Systm crashes began: suddenly, and the map freezes cubase "rule", reset the required Systm ... Despite all my trials and advice diligent technical support M-Audio, I did not russi locate the origin of the problem: USB bus? firewire? I have supper failure on my Fast Track Pro, because it causes dfaillances USB on another computer ... She then grow old plutt wrong (especially since the power button is showing signs of weakness).
I wait in vain for new drivers in hopes to correct this incompatibility, but as a signal by another contributor, the drivers do not seem to put days (Can be think they have reached perfection?)
So, I rutilise my good "old" Delta 44 PCI of the same manufacturer which is certainly not the same prampli or latencies, but possde 4 inputs and 4 outputs that can be used in 96 kHz ... and is especially much more stable (even if the era, it took a lot of adjustments for the use of good fawn).
- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
The main quality of this card is to be compact "portable" and easy to use (no power supply from pramp ...) the default is the lack of stability in my config and weak pramps (turn the potentiomtre 75% to start a microphone and hear even more for a SM57 -> little room)
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
No, I had a Delta 44 pci of the same manufacturer (I did not not amlioration of the quality of sound from the MODL).
- How do you report qualitprix?
It is inexpensive and works in a simple configuration ...
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
No, I would have invested in more expensive hardware ...See less00 - FegcPublished on 03/25/08 at 13:44 (This content has been automatically translated from French)It was almost six years I wanted to buy an audio interface.

APRS I have installed and I plug my SM58 jou something. Great dception! The pre-amp is trs, trs low-level gain.
The first take with the misplaced mic I recorded almost nothing and yet gain the maximum silent. The deuxime take with ideal conditions I arrived to record something, but I'm still trsdu.
May be you have to buy a real pr-amp to make a proper use of this card.
Any fawn I think I'd be better with AudioFire4 I almost bought instead of FTP.
But hey, still a good card, the playback is great and it comes as even record something. But deu me a lot.See less00 - pied2nez

OVERALL OPINION
I possess this sound card from 3-4 years, I had used before in a friend who was a motu very well but much more expensive.
I love the fact what possesses the most part, I think in this price range was the very best
I love hindsight at least the fact that it has these limitations therm quality.
I think the price / quality ratio is very good, I think c is a good sound card for model on the other hand I think that it takes at least a good preamp to get to the semi-pro, only it is very good but not enough to compete with quality stuff.
with lots of hindsight I would not be only choice because I think that he would have been wiser for me to invest, but certainly more expensive prospect of evolution have today. if not the first sound card is very good.See less00
