Value For Money : Excellent
- What technical specifications motivated your choice?
Compactness and simplicity myth ProTools

- For what purpose?
Getting to know ProTools (even when it's crazy, no version of dmonstration, how do you know if a dish before you buy?), And run Reason.

- What is your config (motherboard / CPU / Ram / Hard ,...)?
Core2duo Macbook 2GB RAM, 120GB

- Which instruments or Systmes (console, prampli, DTD ...) you use it and how connections? ...
A condenser microphone, a dynamic headphones, speakers.
On paper this card is the bare minimum and that's what I was waiting for a price slightly lev against the competition, but compensated by prsence license ProTools LE.

UTILIZATION

- Installation is it without problem?
Installation not that simple, we arrive at that spot and default gche: Digidisign not trsractif for the day of its drivers and software. You have the latest dated Systm Most recent internship with updates? Forget. For Digidesign is your ProTools hardware that must follow, then I would have the audacity to think the opposite is the app that needs to know to follow me, I want to enjoy my updates Systm when they go out.

- Have you experienced any incompatibility?
Concrtement, the PACE Systm protection which is in cabbage, and ProTools empchera to start. A pleasure. Otherwise, when possde a system that "in the recommendations of Digidesign," he works. Ddiez a ProTools machine if you like, but why all the apps are not as simple as Reason?

- The configuration gnrale is easy?
Yes, the card as trs simple, easy and convenient.

- The manual is clear and sufficient?
Enough so that I can dbrouiller.

GETTING STARTED

- The drivers are stable?
When a version of OS Digi recommends, yes.

- Are they often put day?
Unfortunately no!

- What software do you use most often?
I finally got to try ProTools, and it's actually a wonderful soft. Unfortunately I do not see more advantage to work on ProTools as the Magix Samplitude 50 euros a bundle that offers more fun, and do not suffer from the exclusivity of the run on Digidesign gear!

- What you get lag?
I could go down as 2ms Reason is really good.

- How many tracks you get record / playback simultanment? ...
Two and two is only used the card.

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
Few months, I sold.

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
The quality of finish, the simplicity of its design. But it by GCH Digi farm policy. Why make the card inoprente when ProTools is uninstalled on the system, when I use AIM Reason? Choices mean.

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
But not coming.

- How do you report qualitprix?
Well, even if many will regret the lack of inputs / outputs. For me it keeps its promises in hardware compared to my needs.

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
Of course not. At least I can say I tried ProTools!
