What characteristics have motivated your choice?
Let all in that's exactly what I needed at all levels.
The semi-parametric EQ, compressor and integrated quality preamps have that I started. FW connection monitoring and comprehensive too.
For what purpose?
Intended for use in home stud 'to semi pro models or more.
What is your config (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Hard ,...)?
XP pro, Q6600 overclocked to 3 GHz, 3 GB ram 800 Mhz, 2 x 320 GB 7200 rpm + 1TB 500MB + for samples etc.
With which instruments or systems (console, preamp, DTD ...) you use it and how connections? ..
Repeat all the instruments' battery, scratches, bass and voice with HS80 in monitors. TC Finalizer, behringer equalizer etc. see my hardware profile.
UTILIZATION
The installation is done it without problems?
A lot of stuff to install, but no worries, the manual is very clear.
Have you experienced any incompatibilities?
None.
The general configuration is easy?
If you know how to walk the DAW, monitoring and a mixer, no worries.
The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
Except for the drivers I only go, but it looks very good and educational, especially for "newbies".
SOUNDS
The drivers are stable?
200%, compared to the alesis 16FW I've owned for example (but perhaps this was due to the 6-4 pin cable I used with my laptop at the time).
They are often updated?
I do not know.
- What software do you use most often?
Cubase SX3, Wavelab 6 and a bunch of plugs. I use no AI4 comes with less "powerful" and adapted to my needs in terms of multiple outputs in all BFD type plugs.
For those who want a complete adaptation of the table to their DAW, it will be essential to use a version of Cubase 4.x (AI, Studio or full)
What you get lag?
The order of 2 to 3 ms input, in other words negligible. About 4 ms output. Total latency of less than 10 ms and imperceptible.
EDIT
on the other hand I noticed when project loaded (8 plugs very heavy, over 3 to 6 other compression / equalization through ... a horror navigate cubase! + 6 audio tracks ...) that tended to crack a lot. At the time I got scared because the PC followed without too much trouble ... to realize that it was the only buffer that was adjusted for minimal latency. I have hardly changed in size, which increases the latency of 3 or 4 ms, insignificant, nickel and everything works! No more crack.
How many tracks you get to record / playback simultaneously
Not exceed 6 for the moment and without any worries.
