Value For Money : Poor
Laptop Pentium M 2.0 Gz, 2GB ram, 80 GB HD int and ext HD 250 GB, MOTU 828 MKII sound card.

I bought basically the PC to mix our record without investing in a machine flopped expensive hardware. The EFET and treatment seem to me of very good quality (for that price anyway)

UTILIZATION

Installation without difficulty and it's not complicated understanding of use. The PC does not seem to get along well with my sound card of the era (ECHO INDIGO DJ) c but perfect with my MOTU.

The manual is a little too succinct at the rglage effects.

GETTING STARTED

Drivers with no problem, frquemment updated. Used to dpart with BRAINSPAWN FORTE (I used the effects live on the voice that came into input, but the latency was quickly empch such use), I use Cubase SX now. Latency dpend lot of paramtrage and sound card, not possible to say how it is. However, to function, it is quite important concerver latencies, which is not very serious mix). In any case, the PC is what I expected of her.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years, and everything is just good prs (I have a few "dsynchros" which forces me to restart the computer project when cell arrives, but must be once every 30 hours of work not dramatic, especially as a Cubase does not crash so far so I can save). For someone who has the same buying motivations than I am, my opinion is a good investment trs.

I bought the ACCESS VIRUS POWERCORE later and Fidler is the original (without the countless bugs of this hardware!).

An important detail: The licenses of plugs that you buy an option are not claimed because the license is binding for life with the serial number of your PC. If you buy one used, so it can be good to get this dj quip that interests you because you can not buy plug-hand. (I wanted to sell my VIRUS TC and I have to refund the buyer 10 days because of a APRS).
