Yamaha DS2416 (DSP Factory)

A 02R in your pc
professional sound card Yamaha DSP Factory 2416. The card offers the power of a table in the 02R PC or 126 EQ numriques + 24 + 2 compressors REV500 multi-effects processor without using the computer.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to install
the config is convenient (download all the preset Yamaha) works with all audio apps

GETTING STARTED

ASIO drivers allow a latency of 3ms depending on config

OVERALL OPINION

The effects are effective and can be multiplied at will since the precesseur not utilisbr /> in addition to another card it can add 24 tracks Boures deffets
of the ball!!

2 analog I / O, an I / O numrique, all gold plated.

Unit with AX44: 4 + 4 analog output from 6.35 + headphones.

Config: that of the former: Duron 800 with 750 MB of SDRAM. W XP.

UTILIZATION

Installation not easy in XP.

No program that came with the card so that dpart, one is soon lost.

GETTING STARTED

Once you understand the basics of the map, it is a wonder that s'apperoit.

The drivers are highly stable while old and you can pile up effects without limit and without any latency.

Logic 5.1 supports fully the card and allows routing trs pointed.

Even with a soft BCAN like mine, you can register a number of tracks incalculable.

The best part about all this is the quality of inputs and pramplis: crystal clear sound, dynamic hi-fi, no collaris, absolute neutrality.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years. Although not very young, this card is still powerful trs.

The quality of the effects is that of hardware surprieure latest issue.

Only default, it is addressed plutt professionals.

Only, it has a stereo input / output analog (RCA), as well as input / output SPDIF.
The DSP card used to route the 24 tracks seem as good, and to have an EQ, a compressor or gate, and a delay (dcalage) per track.
She is also team of two multi-effects ... In short, as is so often said 'a O2R in a computer'.
A two complter faade AX44 bnficier for connections in faade (Jack) a transfer to AT AX16 standard ADAT, and SW1000XG, sound card and MIDI sound module.
The acquisition is done in 32bit format but fall dsutude INTERESTED.
Most of the sampled 24-bit software must.

UTILIZATION

The installation was without problem on Windows XP Home, with drivers for Windows 2000, even if Yamaha has not updated its drivers since 2002 (I think).
About possibly using a Linux, not only Yamaha has not released a driver (not blame) but simply does not wish to make the computer SPECIFICATIONS card available to dveloppeurs ... (HIGHLY CHARGED)
It also works on Mac, but I do not know more.

GETTING STARTED

No problem of stability dplorer.
It is very well supported by the grace Sonar 2 Audio X console, but Cakewalk Sonar 3 and adcid on the following to ignore it ... Too bad.
The mix, and paramtrage effects are in real time. To review the Direct X plug-ins that take resources and have a latency unbearable.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this card since its release, but this is only a few months as I use it to its full potential (without AX16 AT), I use the inserts on my mixer to send the DS2416 and return to my console.
Latency and load on the proc = 0 = Happiness
I was doing before turning on a PII 233Mhz. No worries.

Only concern is that I will not repeat the same purchase: drivers of little or no set day and the impossibility to run under Linux.

I use the card under LogicAudio (PC)

It works well, I record in 24bits/48kHz
one can easily have 16 audio tracks eq / comp / and two effects
Rebouças and on a track in courcircuitant Stereo I / O numrique

The card works as hell, and you can shuffled the plugins with the effects of the map
therefore use an EQ and then the DS2416 on the same track a Reverb

It's great for homestudio

UTILIZATION

The doc and drivers can leave a DSIR ...
dernires updates 2002

GETTING STARTED

The drivers are stable, but not often put day ...
(It seems that Yamaha left his card ...)

I use it with Logic Audio, but my surprise, I thought I could use
Map 2 (as possible), but Logic does not support ... (Only 1 map)

No latency is excellent, and is the highlight!
you touch the volume or pan has a direct effect

We can (without Rack AX) records 4 tracks simultaneously if not 8 or 12 ...

OVERALL OPINION

Currently Exceeds the card is, it does not cost too much,
if you find one for a 300 is worth it!

In terms of sound quality, gives a really good
