AMD 2000 +, GIGABYTE motherboard VIA 400, 512MB

UTILIZATION

The installation Droulez without problem.
the card turned impeccable as on the same IRQ and a radeon 9600 firewire interface!
I still place an irq indpendant by changing the PCI slot and disable the network.
Reinstalling flawless.
panel ESI trs clear and simple enough to be taken in hand, with the possibility to change the chantillonage in one click, open software ... levels for all inputs and all outputs.
franais manual included, just enough to understand.

GETTING STARTED

Last drivers 4.20, dated July chops on the internet but not on the manufacturer's website (?!?)
Trs stable, not a crack.
ASIO 2 + cubase with 5 ms of latency. RAS
I have not really had time to register with the mutipiste playback, etc.
in thor, 4 simultaneous input and 10 outputs.
I record a guitar electro-acoustic pramplis without the aluminum and nickel levels are.
Not a breath.
No problem with all the multimedia application.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week: o)
I love the sound, very clean, I rgale rcouter all my samples.
Little regret (all the same ..), the audio DBiT at about 100 db output, but hey, the quality ..
by the way, I also took home the DX4 M-AUDIO, but certainly not powerful trs its terrible, well equilibrated. Perfect for the cra and multimedia.
the card is a great Russianness, provided with a good software package with ableton ESI (not four, damage).

Objective:
- Multi-track Audio-Numrique (Cubase) on PC and therefore low latency ASIO.
- Audio recording guitar / voice:
* I / O ANALOG: Stereo 2-way or two mono channels or 1 channel 1 channel mono + Stereo.
8 channel mono output -> up to 4 channels Stereo.
- MIDI control of a chain of equipment.
- SPDIF input for recording synth SBLive card.

CHARACTERISTICS to me the most are:
- ASIO2. Zero latency direct monitoring, ~ 1 5 ms insert.
- 24/96kHz in analog acquisition. (With 24/192kHz internally eg. For virtual sampler)
- The number of I / O analog.
- The external box to connect the I / O analog.
- The user-reviews.
- Price

Used on a PC Athlon XP 2200 + @ 2025MHz / KOBIAN FDSX motherboard (VIA KT266A) / 512 MB of PC3200 DRAM / HDD 120GB WD1200JB, in conjunction with a SoundBlaster Live 5.1 Digital to SoundFonts.
The card is connected to the SBLive card Waveterminal 192M by SPDIF 48kHz.
The case of I / O to connect instruments or through a mixer Yamaha MG10 / 2 (eg microphones singing.) Either directly via a pramp. (POD2 guitar pax ex.). Its outputs are sent to the mixer.

UTILIZATION

No problem for installation.
No problem for driver updates. EgoSys support seems pretty dynamic to change the driver and console DirectWIRE although no problem being deferred.
No bp of incompatibility with the SB Live, which can continue to use it for soundfonts.
The only problem is the potential of this card and the number of I / O grate.
The manual is clear and prcis.

GETTING STARTED

I had no pb with all the drivers I used.
The update of drivers is impressive plutt: 4 in 3 months. For once, we may even wonder whether a worth to install updates every day.
I use it with Steinberg Nuendo 2, and most of my compositions, I use an ASIO latency of 2.33 ms, rve! I just say on this subject that I had to optimize my PC and XP with onions because of the VIA chipset seems to get that comfort and I can not go below in terms of latency without risk of cracking / pop / ... on the other hand, it seems that on non VIA chipsets on mainly P4, the latency can be lowered without the ms problem in common use.
Next time I will forget but not VIA ESI.
Typically, my songs are like this: 2 or 3 tracks guitars, a bass track, a drum track, 2 or 3 synth tracks, 1 or 2 tracks voice and I get a voice recording mono + 1 Guitar / str POD o simultaneously with playback of other tracks. Everything has a latency of 2.3 ms of audio. The rve simply!
Too bad we can not use a DSP to add effects in real time as with the SBLive (Kx driver) or the EMU-0404.

OVERALL OPINION

Having previously hacked a lot with my SBLive and Kx drivers for ~ 2 years, I use the Waveterminal for 3 months and has changed my life. Kx drivers can dj to a lot of things with a simple but dsormais Sb Live with Waterminal, stability performance and especially the quality of the recording are waiting for you, and connectivity !
Only BMOL precisely in asymmetric connectivity. A small effort to put everything in symmetric t would be more reassuring to the client about the quality of this product indniable.
Trs qualitprix good value but prices are lower for all manufacturers with the new cards arrive EMU-0404, ESI Juli ... What is true today may not be may be more tomorrow.
Purchased shop in Toulouse Midi Music (31) for 270? (Pack Midi MDDIO and software) in 09/2004.

OOPS! HOUAIS! I DID. I dreamed TOO.
1) What motivated my choice c nb the input, because I intend to work with a microphone and synthe, and later can be a mixer.
2) c, but above all the advice I read on this site that helped me a lot (thank you guys) to choose my card digital audio.
3) Make a good big sound
4) mb pc 512 / 160 GB / xp / and I plan to move to 1024 and 220 mo go

UTILIZATION

1) The installation! not possible
recapitulons.j ''m new
I read the manual / open the tower / I install the card / plug the cable / closes it all /
is the software / windows continue to say 5 or 6 times and / c is /
not be too simple freaked me who has sworn death and the seller to return to his contraption so I can not HA!.
Only problem thread for the map, then delve into your closet.
2) no incomatibilites
3) manual in french but just enough any more.

GETTING STARTED

For the time being not used, I expect my Sennheiser HD 600 (too happy even if its cost me arm and a leg) and my sonar.
Too bad it can not find out I saw the other opinion must not have any problem.
once done I would be remiss not to come back you say.
