Best value: Poor
Double use: for my studio (obviously) on a Acer Aspire 1355 (256MB RAM, 20GB HDD, Proc I know) and my pc fixed cost me MP3's and the matte vidos (long live the firewire, twice on MOTU) no problem, except that I do not know that she is right when j'coute my MP3's on my pc fixed the sound saturates, and APRS grsille means nothing, has to come from my PC, so now j'coute my MP3's on my laptop through the network and it niquel. no problem on a table Mackie Onyx 1620. my two PC's are often Windaube 2000 Pro SP4.

UTILIZATION

Too easy install no incompatibility when I bought everything I know anything about home studio, I think I would be lost between ke all the cables and all the buttons. makes it too easy. You branch t'instal drivers and CLAT you!
manual clear and in French, with all drawing ptits ooooouhhhhhhhhhhh

GETTING STARTED

Drivers super stable?! yes yes yes yes
I uh I've updated only once for several moi.faudrai go and see ...
used with Live, Reason and FruityLoops, insignificant latency regardless of the software (4ms in 96khz on Reason !!!!)
I use myself as 8 tracks. was enough for me. the day I need more> ADAT

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for some months, I like the simplicity the beauty of the card, trs pros, trssrieux and I also well liked by the control card apps from the PC . class is a. my firewire but I did not hsit! gnial arpond is like clockwork, two PCs connected to it, the sound is niquel, you notice all ptits composed in your default! well hears the different sound, deep bass and big ptites tablecloths background in short, everything to do work mga prcis, work pro the number of outputs is a plus ( with the adat, but in this case I will pass the pramp)
if that's my (well I Savai before buying it is the LCD screen, you can lose yourself in two seconds in there, having forgotten what you have to do and of fesant Truks you wanted it! much we note that the buttons are too small for my part I was not drang. rack in two seconds is impeccable, but when cable and rack is difficult go in the back to connect a truk
this is my first sound card and I do it again this choice despite the high price I do not regret at all having bought more than € 1000 but still ... it has for me is 9 (for sailing in the crappy screen and the price too expensive for me)
