All user reviews for the Terratec Aureon 5.1 Fun

I chose this sound card because I wanted a card with input / output optical digital TOS-Link, without having to use an aditional PCI bay of my PC.

It is connected to an ASUS TUSL2-C, with an Intel Celeron1.2 Ghz, 2 bar CAS2 256MB PC133 SDRAM, three hard drive SEAGATE Barracuda 80 GB, Windows 2000 Pro FAT 32 ... I use it plugged into my amp Pioneer A-450R 40W, the output line card.

UTILIZATION

GETTING STARTED

Unlike what was said above does the latency is far from being drisoire at least 23 ms of audio and compensation to play synths in real time it is better to forget carrment. But it is not for a.

OVERALL OPINION

6 months of use without problem.
As for sound I'll still be in with the advice dsaccord previous ones:
My friends are tonns of sound quality they receive from my microphone audio chat!
Plugs into a Hi-FI dynamics trs is good and sound, if not the class of the AWE24: / 96 for example, is far from being ridiculous.
Let us not forget that this is a multimedia card and if you bought has to make the sound you make me trouble!
This edition simply said that's enough with wavelab and sp-dif can transfer its projects without losing quality Stereo. And I would add in rponse Previous notice that all of the same bte QDE just say that the sound is zero while that person registers a mini disc by microphone input, which is probably more Designed to collect the tortures that make him suffer as gamers to make the sound. for the transfer numrique there is the sp-dif!!

A new 26 Euros (street Montgalet) hsitation not have! For that price you will never have the converters high class but frankly it's thundering!

Manuel virtually nonexistent. We would like to know more about the internal connections of the card with the CD drive of your PC. If you want to know anything, then the book is perfect!

GETTING STARTED

- The drivers are stable? Yes
- Are they often put day?
Last day a time of drivers on the Terratec site. Correct.

- What software do you use most often?
Magix Audio Studio, Cool Edit 2000, SoundForge

on the other hand, CAUTION, the level of the line and microphone inputs are super low. To save my minidisc, I have to put the headphone back and volume through the microphone between the booster for a minimum of signal.
In any recording software, simply arm the track to see a great level of -35 dB (background noise). Ct of this is the rotten!!

OVERALL OPINION

APRS over a year of use, I am happy with the possibility of the card (MULTIMEDIA) but the super rcurrent background noise.

Even if it's not a card CHRE trs (pays about 45 in 2003), I expect at least 60 dB dynamic card SPECIFICATIONS. The chipset Intgr a better performance on this l.

If you want to use computer music, aim higher. If you expect that the 5.1, then it is perhaps the coup, though now most of the chipset offers!

Apart from the level of so low and the level of background noise so loud, it's just a card - is correct that doing a good job.
