Card with 4 among analog.
I plan to record my trio!
IBook G4 OS 10.4.8
I will use it with 2 condenser microphones (drums) + 1 microphone in between 3 (kick) + electric bass in between 4 + keyboard mp8 spdif in.

USE

No problems everything is OK
except that I can not argler outputs 5-6 (I opened a post if you have the answer, thank you)

IMPLEMENTATION

Logic everything is nikel.
I even made a decision with a sm58 and Pramp is sufficient for this application (c'tait impossible with a firebox)

NOTICE GLOBAL

I bought it on the advice of a sound technician and what motivated me was the price and the prestige of the brand.
I use it for Home Studio recording. I use a console Phonic Powerpods II in 1860, M-Audio preamp DMP3

UTILIZATION

The installation of this easier, fireware connected to my pc.
I did not follow the manual. I use Cubase SX3. Has 8 tracks but I have not tested together.

GETTING STARTED

The gain is high, the voices and instruments are preamplified, no breath, imperceptible latency.
The console panel is not very clear.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years for trying to have a Prodipe and M-Audio. What I like most quality, pure sound, gain, and the look and the...…

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years for trying to have a Prodipe and M-Audio. What I like most quality, pure sound, gain, and the look and the least that the console panel that is not very clear.
With the experience I would do without hesitation that choice.

I hesitated between this product and PRESONUS FIREBOX of (which I heard only good things). I take the time to write this review because I was really impressed with the Saffire LE. PC configuration, Windows XP ... I had the chance to compare both products extensively and is a huge difference between the two.

UTILIZATION

No problem. Not really a man but a little hasty expicatif DVD but not really necessary anyway.

GETTING STARTED

No problem here either. I have only been two weeks. I use SONAR.

OVERALL OPINION

As I mentioned, I was able to compare the product with the FIREBOX and converters as well as the preamps are nettememt higher on the Saffire LE (and I'm very picky about it, a little zealous same. I also presume to say that I have good ears). But here, on a good frame of reference, even my grandmother would hear the difference. I do not really see how we can do better in this product category. The sound quality is amazing, very accurate, with virtually no background noise (much less than the FIREBOX), it's really amazing. The preamps are also stronger here (more gain). I hesitated a long time because I found not many reviews for this product. Even if the seller tells you that the Saffire LE FIREBOX and are equivalent in performance (that's what mine told) do not particularly think! Do you even compare (a real serious test) and you will not regret it. I hope I have helped someone with this opinion.
