Case midi / audio autoaliment from the USB port, portable, ideal in the context of mobile use with a laptop.
Between line and microphone audio, RCA audio output, headphone jack, in short everything is there.
I use a Laptop p4 2 ghz, 256 RAM, Windos XP, Cubase SL and REASON.
For 229 euros there is no better.

UTILIZATION

Installation is very simple and well explained the ds paper manual. No pb of compatibility with REASON and CUBASE.

GETTING STARTED

I had no particular pb with 1.0 drivers.
With REASON impossible to get around the CPU, latency ngligeable.
Cubase SL ngligeable latency but is faster CPU load level limit if you use vsti, surtt if there are greedy. eg, KONTAKT 2 and 4 vsti synth type and CPU dcroche.
To play the audio tracks ss 24 bp with several dozen vst effects.

OVERALL OPINION

I utitlise for 1 year and a half and I have not encountered any particular bp, including the background noise are talking about some testers.
We can win the ds of the laptop bag, a headphone and you can tweak on the train, make a mix in one night ...
I had one before in 24 wamirack PCI card with a desktop PC and I had that with bp. The sound quality of the AU 20 is at least as good and stability of the UA20 is irrprochable.
If we want to catch top-level acoustic or record multiple audio sources at the same time we must look elsewhere, but Obviously the price is not the same!
The quality-price ratio is really good. I would do bp ss this choice or perhaps U224 tascam for faders, but it is less portable.
