The post office lost my package but found after a few days
Vertigo
I expected a little plastic box and not a beautiful trs
in fact it is a block mtal, trs not heavy but solid brushed steel front connectors and buttons too hard

What motivated my choice:
6 inputs (I dj a double and an analog pramp numrique)
2 which support the connection of an instrument
Quality of converters and pramp

Athlon 1GHz with 256MB of RAM

UTILIZATION

Installation zero-bp (ah, if a crash, but quickly forgotten)
No incompatibilitbr /> Configuration trs simple.
You plug the card, and then you can start recording in cubase
the manual can be found on the site franais distributor
configuration software could not be more simple mixer software is simple and effective

GETTING STARTED

Cubase no problem. Here too was resumed immediately channels needed.
I put 6ms latency rduire but I could if I had a more powerful pc, no problem.
I did not test more than two tracks

The trs pramplis are clean (not yet taken a breath) and the reserve of gain far greater than ncessaire in input and output

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 days
I like the CONTRL faade in the cohrence General for the card (everything is intuitive, even select the inputs / outputs in Cubase), the robust appearance card, the effective pramplis and converters (connect a guitar directly into the card and use an amp simulator, what joy!)
I like the least dcrochages audio in winamp (but I think it's not related directly map)

Before you have it, I had a soundblaster live (see anything!), And was a prt of a motu digifall accompanies pramp and converters numrique / analog. In terms of implementation, c'tait impossible ... I'm glad to have changed config (have it all in the same box!)

This is an important investment sr good, but a good value trs quality price!
I would do the same choice. No dception for now.

Edit 24/01/2011: More than 5 years have sunk, I remember having some dcrochages pc in sync, then I pass on mac. Mac no problem, but I finally realize that pramplis are good but not great. A lot of breath when you push a little and a little momentum on dcevante including guitars ... It lacks a little something ... Finally it's subjective I have neither the hardware nor the ear to judge properly. Moreover the map is because I lch rcemment a hot unplug windows or train travel + metro. In any case it syncs well, and I want to pass on the higher end. Prices well down in 5 years, and for the price I put the era, I may be less (number of I / O, etc.). But I better! Goodbye little Firebox, I loved you well you know ...
