What characteristics have motivated your choice? For what purpose? What is your config (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Hard, ...)? Which instruments and systems (console, preamp, DTD ...) you use it and how connections? ... *dropoff Window

Use the following as needed Toneport GX XLR connections. Choice motivated by nice price for the atos USB 2.0 and amp simulations already known by the GX, which were enough for me (at the time). All that for models to cool.

My computer is a portable recent HP, 3 go ram, Intel proc pentium dual-core. Instruments used: Hohner Lespaul 89, bass Ibanez ATK 300 Shure SM 58 (I think, is that the singer ...).

USE

Are the drivers stable? Are they often updated? What software do you use most often? What you get lag? How many tracks you get to record / play time? ... *dropoff Window

Drivers: no worries, installation of gearbox terrain.
Software: mostly Acid Pro and Ableton on end.

Recorded track one by one, not tried pluysieurs both. Read tracks: a package worry free as Acid.
Correct latency, not measured, but has not scratched my ears!

IMPLEMENTATION

The installation is done it without problems? Have you experienced any incompatibility? Is the general configuration is easy? Is the manual clear and sufficient? ... *dropoff Window

Instal carefree XP (old pc) and Vista. No incimpatibilité including OS (tested on mac).

The config is simple hardware: 2 volume knobs mic and general. Soft less fun (I said that I had the old UX1, red box) boring drop-down menus for guitar presets, base and vox. All very intuitive (return by General menu to try to find the last preset used).

Simulations: big gimmick LINE6, but ... a lot of guitar presets, a little less for the bass and one for voice qq certainly combinations galore amps, cabinets, effects, re-indeed, impossible to possibilities do in his real small apartment (virtual distance to a microphone in front of the amp, etc), re-re-SOUNDS ... but certainly NOT ALWAYS THE HEIGHT! Especially after discovering Guitar rig and other types vst Ampeg ...
Many online losses, then!

NOTICE GLOBAL

How long have you use it? What thing do you like most and least? Have you tried many other models before buying it? How would you rate the quality / price? With experience, you do again this choice? ... *dropoff Window

Using the Toneport GX 1 year, the UX1 for 6 months. My first audio interfaces, no regret or concern eventually. on the other hand, it is clear that we must pass beefier soon as one progresses computer music (MIDI necessary in my case).

Pros: all terrain crash zero!
the -: Many sim but eventually some really usable (matter of taste, of course ...), knock box (super light resistant?), not scalable (MIDI zero ... but the saiten buying it).

With experience? A good choice for me at the time (Cygnus means nine is a bit expensive!). Now I want a card with better converstisseurs without embedded sim, and would use plugins + delivered its serious level.
