I worked for several years with the Motu 828mk2 no problem. While the concept of a MK3 with its functions Intgr effects could allow me to delete a whole rack of old hardware (space saving, less electrical consumption, quality of intrinsque card ...)
The heart of my studio: P4 3GHz PC, Windows XP edition Man + Cubase 4: I make arrangements, I write songs, instrumental in the afternoon and shuffled audio (guitar plans).
The concept of the card I put 10, it's great but ...

UTILIZATION

... The system is such galre I have not been able to make it work. Am I the only one? First firmware to date - I reu the card with the firmware n 1.04 (which appears the ignition) and I managed to install version 1.06 aprstl loading the software on the site Motu. Anglophobes refrain! (Thank you to the hotline at um-distribution because I never thought to press the PAGE button on the faade of the card while turning on the machine to put it into implementation mode rception - days. Do not look, it's not in the manual, in English Obviously).
All these manipulations to try to Russia last installation of drivers that leads invariably the same message: "Motu Wave Audio: This driver can Get You Started - Error code 10". I tried an installation of the card on another PC: rsultat same. Would I reu dfectueuse card? In fact, it's deuxime Reue card in May 2008 I complain here. THE FIRST, bought in April, did not work at all and I had t replace dja?
You will understand why, today, I put a zero-point at all!

GETTING STARTED

I remain perplexed a machine and its installation software Windows XP compatible certificates that you buy together in a nice bote hit, it should work immediately without prior - day, right?
What latency do you get: ending for 4 months!
So no opinion on this subject.

OVERALL OPINION

What is the particular feature you like least? :
- Autism MOTU firm and its total lack of pdagogie (except to sell you their products, as for the DMOS Motu on the site is great!)
Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
- No, only the MK2 which I do not dry up boxes.

Exprience with, you will do again this choice?
- Ds as I find how to install it, I promise, I will our answer!
