Choice motivated by the number of inputs / outputs, routing, quality converters D / A. I use it on PC with Reason and Reaper, with multiple synthesizers and effects inputs. I use the built-in effects mainly to complete the pieces. Edit: Do not rely on the units preamps. After the first failure (3 of 4 knobs broken), a month of repairs, two preamps are dead again. In short, the line is good for mics (though seldom actually used) it was shit. Edit2: &laquo;remake, without compensation from the TC, the card is declared normal. I tested in store, it works. 4 days, repanne.

Edit3: fast and efficient repair in denmark. You just avoid the French Service.

UTILIZATION

The installation ..... you plug it works. No incompatibility, configuration very easy. Edit: entries amplified card fall permanently stranded, it takes four weeks to repair mini, when they deign SAV repair.

GETTING STARTED

The drivers are stable, do not hesitate to chopper beta versions. Updates regularly. I work without a problem 8ms latency 96kHz.
Story by Fabrik plugins are often put in a row when it falls below VST 20ms latency ... not for the live. It's a shame, the reverb is killer.
64-bit drivers available then, but still unstable in windows (WDM plant after several hours of listening)

OVERALL OPINION

I wish I could say more, but everything has already been said in the test Audiofanzine. Intensive use for over 6 months. Integrated effects magnificent, the following are no longer valid: a flawless finish ... a choice I would do without problems several times. Edit: the knobs fell to stranded preamp (3 of 4), and classic problem identified in CT. No problem for the management, but more than a month to repair, it's much too much when the problem is already identified. Edit2: Two preamp again stranded. This map is not reliable. Edit3: 5 weeks later, I return my card declared trouble free. Tested in store, it works, four days later, re down. At the shabby quality of the material is added the insult of their customer service french. Eventually the map was corrected to 1.5 weeks in denmark (we emphasize once again the superb performance of the French VAS) and since it works. (At the same time they changed the preamp and knobs convertos ....)

This card is awesome when it works, you have to see if you can tolerate repeated failures or not.
