OVERALL OPINION

since February 2010.

I started with ISIS to tell you! Then I tried M-Audio Firewire400 and Edirol and RME.

Honestly, I did not expect such quality considering the price. Badly I can, after having tried for almost a year, this map remonstrated to cards 3-4 times more expensive! The quality and powerful sound make me hallucinate! There is not a fart blast! and quality of class A preamp that is happening to external preamp! a first for me.

I was pleasantly surprised by the bundle provided. Nothing to see what manufacturers usually provide. Let me explain: Here it is no simple test version. You have complete and powerful software to express your creativity. The supplied DAW Studio One is very simple there is drag and drop. It's true that it's easier to release a software that corrects for Presonus all the faults of elders. (Cubase, Cakewalk ...) Of course, being the last to leave their DAW.

Plus points: Sound quality, power output, ease of routing with Universal Control, No Breath.
The -: I'm still looking ....( yes, this card should be more expensive given the quality! So do not wait: Go for it!)
