For CHARACTERISTICS while adj t said ... What more set - except that the creature is really trs trs complte!
A lot of effects arranged quite handy USB connection, etc. ...
This is really a workstation could not be more complte (as said above)!

Just a note on the design that I find particulirement Russian! This small Casing with his big blue screen, I found a very nice!

UTILIZATION

The configuration is gnrale plutt simple, it installs the drivers then plug in the bbte and go!

Personal I had a little trouble two days ago when I tried to reinstall the driver for my sound card home, I could not reconfigure the Black Box to check in for Cubase, since everything is back to normal ... I think there&#39;s be a little conflict between the drivers! Nothing serious in the end, because it all came together but me right well done even sweat!

Concerning the edition of sounds and other effects, the black box to be handled fairly well, all is pretty straightforward! The only BMOL is that it has a small reset, all alone like a big, I do not know why ... (Srement cause of nitrates in my games midis cubase, Black Box has a signal that the nitrates did not particulirement silent destiny and gave it a 0). ..

The manual as it is clear! In just a résumé t thought for the bug works is simple fawn sre, trs good design!

I put 7 because it has reset itself!

SOUND QUALITY

Then the sound quality ...

Well I personally found that some simus are not too bad, but from a. .. It&#39;s not the killing of wild ...

Cleans for example, the level of dynamic Casing n&#39;tant not terrible, it will be advisable to push a little volume for the sound a little more alive, for heavy distortion, they are d j trs compresssion home and when you want a slightly more rear and dynamic, living, etc ... Bah found the same concerns with the clean, have to push a bit (and more is gained in precision lgrement)!

Moreover, the precision is not his strong point, as saturated AA Trend drooling a lot and all the presets are really the grain "M-Audio!" Say that the only diffrence between diffrent saturation is available primarily on the "tonestack" each of them. This means that I am almost sr that eq equivalent (in the rendering of rglage eq), it must surely find virtually the same on all the saturated modlisations !

Other default, the Black Box is full of bass, I put all personal between 10 and 20, nor (and even, on some presets, they are 0), the correction of mdiums and treble could be a little more efficient (that is only slightly less effective than eq Marshall, for the connoisseur ...)!

In short, her issue, adpanne but not ecstasy, far from t. .. APRS good, it is likely that the choice of speakers that we use is important in sound reproduction, I have a personal pc Altec Lansing speakers and a friend of mine who is also a branch of the Black Box also on pc speakers with a subwoofer, and that has to be at home or at home, I do not notice the amlioration particulire ... L o may sound good, it plugs into the monitor speakers (I also tried in-store with this config), the sounds are much more flattering!

In the end all this is no big deal because I just used as an interface to connect my guitar on my pc. For sounds, I use Guitar Rig 2 and the BlackBox is preset on the "Bypass" (preset INTERESTED elsewhere, because you can edit the same right of eq scratch and it is not uninterrupted esting to attack Guitar Rig or Amplitube)! In this context the dbrouille the bbte is not bad! Guitar Rig sounds REALLY well as more dynamic and natural, I enjoy it!

I put 4 to not be too mchant (Guitar Rig heursement that exists)!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for more than six months, in the end I am satisfied for what I did (home-studio, apartment scratch, etc ...)!

The particular feature I like most is the complete trs ct of the unit (may be even too ...), but mostly plug&#39;n ct &#39; play is simple and not making head (ds when there is no conflict with my other sound card ...)!

I have tried any other models before acqurir, and sometimes I tell myself that I may be wrong because the BB had been normment of thing, but the worries c &#39; is that it does not fawn all nickel! I might be to look at me and then the cards Line6 M-Audio USB external, simple but certainly more adapted to the final! Note that the BB 44khz sample when others do 96khz, is what has REALLY changed the sound, I know but ...

Finally, the report qualitprix plutt is good, even if we should not expect the top home top (RVer should not), the bbte can dpanner good for a lot of stuff!

Exprience with, is what I would do this choice? Hmm, can not be ... For the same price or less, I would opt for another plutt external sound card of the brand. Black Box is too bard of things that are not really (ie the same pace and the bote pdalier which I&#39;ve been using ever) ... May be a sound card only intended to plug a guitar into a PC and it can be for a bit less CHRE, would have ample just ... But ... In the era (6 months ago), there knowing absolutely nothing ... I found a good ide ... c&#39;tait

In the end, I do not regret, but let&#39;s say I&#39;m not the choice to re sr!

J&#39;achterai certainly an external USB sound card (Line 6 or M-Audio) with, when traveling or on vacation dpart a small Pocket Pod! It might be smarter (at the same time the pocket pod did not exist six months)! I felt like I rpter of a sudden t. ..

In short, DEFINITIONS, I like it when even my tit blackbox because it dpanne all of the same well and trs other simus (Guitar Rig 2 for example), the sounds are trs really good and for the home studio, it works well (at the same time, I am far from being a pro)! Val!
