What characteristics have motivated your choice?
I only need the output monitoring and pre-amps are enough for the infrequent use that I did.

With which instruments or systems (console, preamp, DTD ...) and you use the connection with what? ...
Guitar, bass and keyboard. Then I have my monitors connected directly above the HS80M.
Use the USB connection to PC.

For what purpose? What is your config (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Disk ,...)?
Mixing and Mastering, if need registration, but otherwise it's for me when I play the piano or itches.


UTILIZATION

The drivers are stable? They are often updated? What software do you use most often? What latency you get? How many tracks do you manage to record / playback simultaneously? ...
On Windows, the default is that you can not have multiple application using the sound card. While the Mac I have no worries on that side.

Besides Windows installation Digi MME Helper is required to use audio player or web browser on Mac and there's no need to walk away.

I use ProTools and Logic but WaveEditor on Protools and Wavelab the pb is not managing latency, but since the card can be used with other software in the end we exponents on another app and now runs his impeccable.

How many tracks do you manage to record / playback simultaneously? ...
Bah there ProTools unlike other soft limit the number of simultaneous tracks so it's really a big flaw in most of the non-management latency.

GETTING STARTED

The installation is done it without problems?
Very quick and easy, even easier on the Mac.
The general configuration is easy?
Yes

Have you experienced any incompatibilities?
not

The manual is clear and sufficient?
For me anyway it was sufffisant

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it?
Its been a while but more than two years.
I did not give more specific

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
No

What thing do you like most/least about it?
She walks with the soft tt, not take up much space, stands up or lying down.

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Seeing the other sound card there necessarily better, but if we need to work on Protools we do with whether there would even better in the same price

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
Yes in the sense that I needed to have Protools
