PCI/ISA + Rack Soundcard from Creative Labs

I bought this card to record my guitar via in.Je decision to use it with XP.

UTILIZATION

The installation is not very easy, but it is negligible. The general configuration was a bit dubious in my cas.Windows keeps harping that he has detected a sound card when it is installed for a long time.

GETTING STARTED

Good, we go into the problems, at least I have problems with this carte.En done since I bought it I had more problems than anything else. A time playing a video game, the sound of a sudden turns into the carton flap, due I reinstall the whole map from the service (great council) ...
In addition, it is true that when you plug a headset it saturates quickly, and I do not understand ... When you configure the software and that is creative in "headphones", height of fill is as good as when you put a headphone like configuration with "2.1 speaker"! J'halucine it's foutage Geul.
Another problem, although the noise level is higher, the sound saturates quickly (compared with no map) when playing mp3 ...
Yet another problem: while quietly listening to the fruit of my work on Reason, a bug blew up part of my song while playing! And it happens (fortunately this is rare) whereas before it would never happen with a single chipset built into the motherboard ... It is doubtful any ca.Et finally recording electric guitar through Vox VST disappointed me! Total lack of punch.
In his games against the video (when it works) and DVD is impeccable!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few months, I like connectivity for its price rather affordable. What I like the least I have already mentioned above.
I never tried the other models before.

I do not have that choice would do because in fact this card is not suitable for computer music ... it remains for me to sell it. However it is a card that fits well with gamers and DVD enthusiasts etc ...
