O In the era of music I started I had a simple Hercules Muse 5.1 DVD, a quality mdiocre Employment musique.Donc the emu 1820 is impossible as a choice of references. 24 bit / 192 kHz, inputs and outputs of a DIFFERENT kind not knowing what to do, and the collection's outdoor rack is very practical when you have a variety of connections faire.La quality audio is superb, and this card is for me a REFERENCE, emu oblige.Je used with a PC with a quip AMD Sempron 2400 +, 1536 MB of DDRAM, a 80 GB hard drive , and another 40 go, and my motherboard is an MSI K7N2 delta.A that I adjoin a simple keyboard MIDI control, roland ed pc 180a, and speakers who have nothing but uninhabited fund s'aquittent trs good of their spots, Altec Lansing 221 2.1.Je'm using mainly for work in audio, and sometimes by noon.

UTILIZATION

Installation is easy, only the power cable can Drout few uns.Il was no inconsistency, as well as hardware configuration logiciel.La when it has left me perplexed a can, so I work with the original. I think it works more than bien.Par against the manual, thank you emu, he would not put that I'd be out as well.

GETTING STARTED

The drivers are stable trs, and in terms of updates I think it's going ncssaires occasionally see the manufacturer's website to keep the software courant.Les I'm using are the ones that came with the card, so Cubase VST 5.1 and WaveLab Lite 2.5.J 've added a lot of VST effects and VSTi instruments that I found in freeware.Je also works with 2 storm that has crs am using my audio sounds for that matter after I cubase.La latency in the most appropriate my setup is 5 ms for all the numbers logiciels.Pour of tracks that I can read, I do not know, but to give an order of ides, with 9 audio tracks, effects to most tracks, automation, and mastering effects on the tracks master, I get a 10% cpu usage.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this card for 6 months, and what j'apprcie most is the sound that it has a.Biensur other converter as its quality, its quality ... Its AudioDock gnrale fait.Le only in MODEL I used before is a Muse 5.1 DVD ... In other words, I am pleased to have this aquisition.Pour the price it is true that may sound lev I know I have the first ahsiter t, but given the quality of this one and saw the software offering, if the choice had to be rebuilt would be the same.
