The number of well enough, pramplis lamps, the simplicity of use.

For live electronica, improvisation and composition in a group.

Notebook Toshiba, Intel motherboard, Intel Centrino CPU clocked M760 1.8 Ghz, ATI Radeon x700, 1024 RAM, 80GB 250 GB external.

Used for recording with two Shure SM57 + other dpendant the spot or bump projet.Je with Sennheiser HD-25 so you can easily hear the slightest sound and that this interface breaks records clean . No need to prampli and so it's nothing to say.

Most often I record my bass, my guitar or other instruments, like a piano or a drum line, and many other things and I never short dcus t in terms of dynamic and spectrum.

UTILIZATION

The installation problem of pos me because I made the terrible mistake of the driver essay of origin, the more I had the wrong firewire card which ignores a Texas Instrument.
If you buy this card especially bought a firewire card with a quip NEC chipset.

See topic here.

So I had to reinstall my PC because of this damn silent installation permanent. Right now I work for almost a year with the version 1.54 driver and it works without problem since.

The latency is about 10 ms full ball, but otherwise it seems small.
I use most often with energyXT 2 (this is where it runs best I find), Live and Cubase SX3 order of prference and CPU.

GETTING STARTED

So the backgrounds of drivers CD, you can use it Frisbee.
Parcontre go to the website https://www.mlancentral.com/ and you have the drivers for your card FIREstation.

With a PCMCIA firewire card with NEC chipset it works with nickel.

It takes at boot resource management program mLAN.
I save up to 8 tracks simultaneously to the maximum, that's all it takes.
I do not feel limited by this card and yet I am a capricious.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year dj.
I like its simplicity and above all price: Pay € 320 in time, imports USD.

Pass 110 220 v with a change of wiring of the coil of the power supply. So no need of the transformer.

Frankly given the bargain price it's worth it especially if you want qu'aprsmme buy another card because of the evolution of performance can be used as powerful enough for prampli venue.C new 'is for me a purchase without loss.
What other sound cards can not boast when the technology will evolve.

I tried an Edirol FA101 home but pramps taient much better on the boss then I firestation.Et with Motu Traveler c'tait but a bit too expensive for me.

I would do without this choice hsiter but I still think even buy something more portable for my travels.

Edit 2 years APRS:
I go under mac, I bought a Motu Traveler (much lighter) for more portability.
The walk FIREstation trs MLAN well with Mac OSX and I will test the branch ending for fiber + word clock (for sync) and add between the Motu and the pramps FIREstation are trs good.
