    The dream she brought to all musicians finally going to do our album at home.

    UTILIZATION

    I know how many more there were versions of drivers that are traded on the web hoping to find the Holy Grail, an era ... I can successfully install, after several months of discussions .

    I think I'm a piece of 8 tracks with, I keep preciously, it is a rare work.

    GETTING STARTED

    I became a computer engineer trying to install ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    If this card worked, AF, can be simply would not exist.

    It is possible that it is trying to run a community of Internet users is found, giving birth to what would later become this wonderful site.

    Sound card with external rack-half. 8 inputs, 4 outputs. Usage: I went from 4-track cassettes computer music Config Pentium II 400 with win98. Notice to pigeons who say it works p: it is because it's an old trick. Win 98 is bad and that's it.
    that never had to be prtention of pro gear.

    UTILIZATION

    I plugged my install. it worked and it works live forever (it's been almost 5 years).
    the manual is well done. zero problem.

    8-track Recording. as much as your support AORD read.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Report for qualitprix amazing era. Great stuff to learn if it is found Cheap Used. No it's not a stew! it is not really era, this is not the same. It paved the way products available. If you do not have a round that you want to learn the MA0, rcupre one. I absolutely do not regret it. I learned a lot, save a lot of DMOS. Now, I grew up, I spend MOTU.

    To avoid the CM with Asus A7N8X-Deluxe and Athlon XP 2000 +.
    It worked well with DFI motherboard and P III 800.

    UTILIZATION

    Crash on crash.
    Cold sweats during the recording sessions.

    GETTING STARTED

    Stability uncertain.
    Suite crap, waste of time. Especially for the management of banks samples.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Inexhaustible source of shit since I'm using an Athlon XP 2000 + to replace the P III 800.
    Converters up to its current price in the market for OCCAZ (40/50 euros).
    Audiophiles and musicians picky, go your way.
    The ISIS card is over.
    If you have your pretty broke to want to buy an ISIS, expect to lose much time.

    Buy 98 was the only offer that price an external rack, 8 inputs, a software package correctly.
    Use: amateur home studio to record guitars, keyboards, live
    Pc config: AMD Athlon 1, go two partitioned hard drives: one for the Millennium isis xp and the other for the rest.

    UTILIZATION

    The installation is a little pb or two but if you use the latest drivers (dj old) and we follow the procedure it's all good.
    So the only pb is not support XP but since I partitioned my drive so it runs in this millennium and I have no pb stabilit.je can say that it does not crash ever.

    Card Format: PCI
    Connectors Rack: analog, digital and MIDI

    UTILIZATION

    had no problems on my K6-2 (which is AMD yet so I think;)) and no problem on my Duron chipset Via.
    The installation was trouble-free with a reservation incompatible with the audio chipset on the motherboard (one off of it directly on the bios is the problem is solved).

    GETTING STARTED

    I found the drivers fairly stable cons do not hesitate to download the latest versions.
    About Windows 2000 the problem does not respond kindly to Guillemot, who in his forum that he was ready to do the only condition that Windows 2000 can manage the inputs and outputs of the card ... So the only people to blame are …

    The only software is used Logic Audio Platinum is there is nickel. I use "a thirty audio tracks" with two keyboards Roland (the XP10 XP80 AND) with a score more respectable.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 2 years and was the only card direct-to-disk affordable. I like the simplistic side of the rack: one connects the synth, audio and MIDI and music before!
    For cons, I just acquérire windows XP and there ... Great question.

    Whatever it takes to start his home studio.

    UTILIZATION

    I had no problem installing this sound card in hand may ave the cable connecting the rack to the map that is a bit too short.

    GETTING STARTED

    The use is very comfortable with Cubase VST notament, Cool Edit Pro, Acid Pro, Cakewalk SE, which is the software I use most.

    OVERALL OPINION

    After purchasing the Maxi Sound Fortissimo, I jumped with joy on this beautiful card. Guillemot thank you. Thank you ISIS. Thank you my friend and thank you !!!!! Music

    Bought in 98. It was the only one at this price which provided an external rack housing, eight inputs and a comprehensive software package.
    Use: home studio for guitar and keyboard recording
    Computer system: CPU AMD Athlon, 1 GB Ram, two hard drives, dual boot with Win Millenium (for the Isis) and XP.


    UTILIZATION

    Installation can be a bit tricky, but it works if you use the latest driver version (somewhat old) and follow the procedure.
    The only problem is the lack of support for XP. That's why I use a dual boot system with Millenium for the sound card. Stability is not an issue, the system never crashes.

    I use it with Cubase Vst5, Acid pro and Wavelab
    I record only audio, no latency problems.


    OVERALL OPINION

    After so many years with my Isis, I must admit that it will be difficult to part with it.
    When I bought it, it was a very good product. It's a pity that there is no XP support.
    I would buy it again.
    I created an area dedicated to the Isis on my homepage. Visit it and tell us your experience.
