So ... Characteristics. 6 I / O connector bushy, firewire, low latency .... etc ...

For use? Reason, live, future use of such Device keyboards, groovebox ...

Config; Athlon XP-3000 + 1 GB Ram + 120 GB HDD 60 GB USB 2.

for now I do not have the instruments that go with it ..... future purchases :-)

up: connectivity evil thought, preamps that hurt the ears

UTILIZATION

Installation no pb, no conflict, no need manual!

GETTING STARTED

Drivers stable with Cubase 5 audio tracks, midi + 5 bp no effect (3 ms latency)
At SHIFT, well not yet updated I'm still at version 1.0.0
I use Live, Cubase, Reason and the demo (not the money to buy the full version)
I put 9 because c Heavy power cycle the machine every time you want to change the frequency ........ so be it.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this card for 2 days, I'm really happy! I had tried anything else before I trusted the reviews for AF! For now I love it, my c bibiche to me! + I would when I back to expose the negatives of the beast. I do not regret my € 399, again thank you playback! When they say "it happens Tuesday," well it happens Tuesday. C a good map, I advise you all! (+ If you have money than I take the FA-101 is + I / O)

Update, September 28, 2005:

Well, I have no complaints, it is still going strong. After several trials in cubase with 8 audio tracks, 10 MIDI tracks, many effects, plugins (Intakt, Vokator, Battery, Cosmogirl2k, Minimoog), I arrived at approx. 8ms. A 3 ms, crunches, artifacts ....

Oh yes!! I have a very important thing to say, but not on the card for laptop manufacturers: FireWire why are they so small and easy to disconnect? A friend on his computer, the firewire just above the DVD drive. So it must disconnect the card to put a disk ... In my case, it is located at the front. For example, just as I lean too much on the screen, I touch the wire slightly to dislodge the plug, and power ..... STOP.

In short, just the default that has nothing to do edirol.

UUPPP on 09/09/06!

Well, it's been over a year there ... Hem ... I think my ear has evolved. She starts to warm my ears a little card. The preamps are just hyper, too much compression, I always want to push the volume, ugly c ... snifouille. Since I changed my pc, so with my HP dv4000 no complaints about the location of the firewire card.

Ah, if the I / O. .. It is wrong damn it all. 2 in XLR combo jack & 6.35, 6.35 4 out jack, RCA in after it's cool, but hey I really started to juggle the routing of cubase and adapters! I might want to consider buying me a card with preamps and a true connection more thought. Voilàààààà
