I bought it to work with Deckadance and to mix MP3 files with Mixvibes' timecoded vinyl records.

I use it with a Sony Vaio FS 215 E (512 RAM/CPU 1.5 Gb). Windows XP Pro SP2

The card is connected via USB2 to the computer and via RCA to a Numark mixer.

UTILIZATION

No installation problems.

GETTING STARTED

I have no problems with the ASIO driver and Deckadance.

No latency during wild scratch sessions. No drop outs.

OVERALL OPINION

This sound card is perfect for me even though it has no RIAA preamp.

It's compact and light, it has a metal housing and the external PSU is something worth mentioning

It has anti-slip knobs and they don't stick out too much from the panel.

The included USB cable is sturdy and long enough.

I haven't tested it yet for other applications but it can be used as a good mobile recording interface thanks to the balanced TRS jack output, the +48-V phantom power and the Hi-Z input (to connect a guitar directly to it).

I also own a Mackie Onyx with Firewire. It's difficult to compare them because they are totally different.

It's good value for money and I recommend it to anybody using mixing software like Mixvibes, Deckadance, etc.
