-Motivation: Like everyone else, the prsence I / O digital and I was told (the vendreurs) report quality-price.

-Usage: Home-studio prep for basic models before recording studio. 1) convert midi to audio tracks, RCup making the Mini-Disc, and trs rarely, recording voice or acoustic instrument.

Config: Mac G3 233 Mhz, 384 MB RAM, 64 GB HDD, Mac OS 9.2.2 and Cubase VST Score 5.1.

Instruments and apparatus: Prampli DiPort of MindPrint, nothing else. Expander Roland SC-880, Sennheiser microphone (I know the RF) and a Sony MD. In short, the simple.

UTILIZATION

-Install: no problem. Note however that if you can not blmer M-Audio for not having delivered an assistant to help with rglages could warmly congratulates the other hand, if there was one. But ... "With a little help from my friends and the technic support," as the guys were singing Liverpool ...

-Incompatibility: as always in this kind of hardware, while the issue revolves around the pilots. In my case, it turned out that, in the words of Madame de Maintenon about the war against Austria, "aa dirty shit beginners." Indeed, the latest version of a driver is not forcment good, and the former, who was walking trs well, I had more (and not on the n'tait site). So, we have a version that works, but we no longer (it's my fault, I lost the CD). Version 2 is incompatible with my Mac OS 9.2.2 (it was not my fault). Beta version (3.1.0) that she seems to work nickel.

FOR INFO: if someone meets the same problem with the current driver, 2: The symptoms are that the plant Cubase Mac leaving, or else does not recognize the card, because it Submitted to him as "dj use by another application" ... Or the two: crash over non-recognition. This comes from the Dashboard "Sound" of Mac OS, which monopolizes the map. It shows that in the "sound output" of the TDB, the card is not only the only choice, but this choice is the default and can not select disable. In addition, the tab "Speakers", thanks to which we Sets the scale, etc., is gray and unavailable. In my case, a tower on the site m-audio.com and research on drivers by checking the "include beta", and a clean install of the beta version 3.1.0, and AA seem to work ( I 'havent been able to test the recording, aa air but ok).

Config: an idiot like me, aa t so complicated and not really explain it to document the software we use, I have to bring an-ing her to make me the paramtrage, sr, well, paying. But it may be that I'm not trs intelligent, too. In any case, I knew nothing, and this lack of information from Cubase I missed on the paper. Since then, M-Audio has posted sheets Specializes trs well done, like, you have DP3, you have Cubase, Logic you have, etc ...

GETTING STARTED

-Drivers: see above.

-Soft: Cubase VST Score 5.1, 2.3.8 and derrire WHO.

-Latency: with the current driver does not work, and some of 22 ms. With the 3.1.0 beta, I'm 11 and some! Formidable.

"It is rare that I try to del of 4-5, but my Mac is not Cassius Clay either ...

OVERALL OPINION

-Hard: For almost two years.

-Features: Sound is irrprochable for the use I make. But as I have the speakers for monitoring that are not at all the height, I can not judge any fact fawn permits.

-Comparison: No, only one PC on ISIS, and I quickly sold all because I could never make them work.

-Qualitprix: rsolus problem of drivers, trs trs correct, even if right now, I never would resume a PCI card is a type of prpih AMERICAS I never aim and I have only good expriences with the FW.

-My next card: FW, but never PCI.
