Best value: Excellent
8 audio tracks, 2 tracks numriques, 2 pramplis microphone with phantom power supply 48V, it yal enough to make a small home studio with a good foundation. Pro-Tools LE 5.3.1 software is a complete TRS. Dynamics qualitprix good value (98 dB), the A / D converters are good quality for this product line, even if in terms of frequency drives Sampling the limit is 48khz, better is a reasonable price, have a good solution in a bad 48khz 96khz.

The ide is to make an acquisition to couraging numrique own models correct.

My config is composed of a motherboard Asus A7V8 SR + 512 MB DDRAM PC 2700 + your HD Maxtor IDE UDMA 5 Diamond over 80GB + Athlon XP 2000 + ATI Radeon All in Wonder 32MB DDR.
A Sampler ESI 4000 Turbo, a Rode NT2 microphone, a synth Alesis QS 6.1. A mixer Roland M160 rackmount.

UTILIZATION

Personally I did not have to worry about installation, sometimes Pro Tools LE 5.3.1 (XP compatible) for me, installing the latest version of the drivers under Windows XP Pro (Fat 32 ) did not pos of problem. However, it is recommended that you partition the hard drive if you use one.
Manual handling is however a bit lightweight, so forcmment gnrale configuration via the software is complicated a bit. I recommend the book Pro-Tools in French on the website www. Eyrolles.com. Ct of soft, it is time for Digidesign offers multi-language versions (may be this is the case in the V6 Pro-tools). So this ct there are actually making some progress.

GETTING STARTED

No worries of stability of the drivers. I immediately find Pro Tools LE 5.3.1 and I still train me over because I immediately find a small small software diffrent Cubase, which functions Submitted ditions and more INTERESTED seems a more professional level.
I have yet to test the maximum number of tracks for recording, but read the book dmo session with the soft "Be there" passes without problem. The speed of practice WRITING 50Mo/sec hard drive should allow ample thoriated simultaneous acquisition of the ten inputs (eight analog numriques + 2).

OVERALL OPINION

I bought a year ago, before I had a card Hoontech ADDA 2000 (8 in + 8 out + spdif 96khz 22), no regrets.
Report quality / price: Well, if the software provided silent in French with a manual handover consquent I put trs good.

What I like most is the feeling of Environmental Pro-Pro Tools software.
What I like least: nothing

I would do without this choice problem.
