    UTILIZATION

    Installation problem in win xp free, under win2k it does not work, I tried ELSEWHERE TerraTec mentions only for Windows XP. Drivers fournni mac but not tried since I have no machine.

    Config simple, do not, however, drivers on the site, are less recent than the cd provided by the firmware is against INTERESTED, the original is on cd if problem. I do not know that things change, I had flashes immediately after installation.

    Fairly complete manual

    GETTING STARTED

    Not yet had a crash with this stuff.

    Drivers page -> no comment, use the cd provided.

    Sound Forge 8.0 and 5 Acid ... The sound normal pc but also on another output pair.

    I let a 3ms ...

    8 and 8.

    OVERALL OPINION

    A good time

    It is simple and efficase, pity we can not yet connect several in versionb firewire (in up to four PCI possible) but it will come. Useful the PC free, it retains its last config. Useful when I used the Korg without specially recorded on the PC. Its 19 "for rack integration and cable 4m all provided. Nothing to chance, everything is planned.

    An M-Audio Firewire 410 a pot, but I prefer this one.

    Purchased in Germany 399, a ceprix is ​​a pleasure ...

    For we can couple more, I will return two copies to mount 24-track studio on a table ... without hsiter.

    I put around 9 because we can always do better, but in its category, is a champion.

    Relatively allchante on paper ...

    UTILIZATION

    Initial implementation quite comfortable in Logic or Cubase SX 2.

    GETTING STARTED

    Problems with latency: the driver allows between 3 and 20ms, but itulisation, below 5ms, reading becomes an ax on my config (Athlon 3000 +, 1GB RAM).
    But even 5ms, Cubase is about 15.
    And we realize that the use tracks that are recorded are systmatiquement DCAL about 30ms to pistes sources of cost.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Problem encountered three times on maps diffrent (turn back to the store to change): The XLR mic inputs with no explanation burn with or without use of the power supply 48V. Feedback, 2 between the pr-amplified quickly…

Feedback, 2 between the pr-amplified quickly become unusable. 7 10 days of use each time. (Each time a branch micro RODE).

    The map is not very solid.

    Namoins small problem on mac, not DMAR the computer with the card plugged into the firewire port, I have to connect to APRS dmarage the computer. Gnant's pretty but I think this is more of a bug on my mac, the problem statement does not on other ordis apple.

    The config is very simple, you simply need to know is the o SETTING THE asio your sequenseur and it left my kiki!

    The manual is clear trs, but not useful forcment lorquel'on connate this type of material.

    GETTING STARTED

    The drivers are not stable but trs t updated for a momment, but hey what's a ... momment of his works!

    I 'the User with Nuendo 3 on pc and mac logic pro 8 (two wonderful software ...) and my config for not too galrer I descend juqu'a 2-3 ms latency. It is possible for namoins larger configs to get a 0.1ms or nothing at all what. namoins even if there is latency, it is not noticeable at all.

    It can record and play up to 10 tracks simultanment.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for about a year.
    I like the ease of instalation particulirement and implementation.
    However the big disappointment of this card comes from her, in fact, unless you have a pramps ensures that the converters are pretty average, but good for this price range should not ask for the moon either, we not yet at the level of other presonus and motu.

    The report price is quality in my opinion honnte, especially OCCAZ or you start to find really cheap for what it is, it's git even when an interface ten tracks.

    With experience and with the same budget, I do it again this election, she allowed me all of the same record DMOS my group more than adequate. But my budget does have revised upwards, I think for me Sparer presonus Firestudio and Digimax pramps, but you comparr which is comparable.

    GETTING STARTED

    In terms of drivers too many problems, although it happened to me during a concert (a concert) to lose the connection between the rack and Cubase SX rather annoying right?

    I also opted for a new driver more accurate in terms of latency than that provided original but slightly less stable I think ...

    I shoot with a latency between 4 and 7 ms (at worst).
    I still have that recorded eight tracks simultaneously, I have not needed more for in home studio is used as a motu for my group.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had 1 year and a half.
    The best with this rack that's simple, you plug, turn the knobs is disconnected ... etc
    The least that the top plate that vibrates with the bass or transportation is a bit boring.
    Before buying this rack, I used my table is either the mkII Motu our home studio.
    Level quality / price is nothing to say pretty good.
    I think I would do this election if the opportunity presented itself.
