«  Very good »

Personally, I chose these points to make my choice:
- Good stats
- 2 inputs with phantom power - I used one for a microphone (a t-bone game average is nickayle), occasionally a guitar
- Different outputs, and volume output control, output monitoring
- 24bit 96khz
- Komplete Elements and promotion on guitar rig at the time (provided)
- Returns the posifitifs

My config at the base was a XP PC with a Core Duo, but it works well, it had more power> so I snapped, and I went on a i7 + 32GB SSD + etc. ..
No problem since everything revolves carefree =)

I mostly use noon, I work 48k 24b, in cubase with vst full open, and the microphone used quite often.

I ordered directly from NI> received in 3 days.

UTILIZATION

The driver are stable under 7 64b, 32b xp I had problems, but in fact I think it was more related to the processor and ram that no longer followed anyway.

So I work in Cubase, with kontakt and various vst, so one or two audio lines (mic) to tweak my hideous voice with vocoders and other effects.

Number of tracks in cubase simultaneously, even though I've never met limit for now, I do not push the card all the way to the pleasure of pushing back. But for example on a recent project I had thirty tracks (vst or audio), so with 4 multi noon. It does not mean much this said, it is still linked above proc + ram.

I have a latency of 3 ms, after I did not look at this item, as it turns impeccable and it suits me.

GETTING STARTED

Easy installation, no conflict, at first I had problems with a feeble xp pc spent on seven with an i7, no worries.

No big update, but no need either.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been over a year since I use it.
A friend has a roland, others maudio / avid also.

I have not seen anything better, although their purchases are more recent.

The look and compactness (?) Of the komplete audio are also very friendly, and the volume knob on top is fine.

In addition, the headphone level is independent of volume, and that, ultimately, it is convenient.

With (daily) use this card for over a year and the decline in this use, I do it again this choice without hesitation, because I know it's serious, stable, efficient.

As for money, bah I do not know, I've never been able to test cards lower price ...
