The main feature is its 6 analog outputs for a small fee.
I intended to use it to make real-time with Max / MSP

UTILIZATION

The installation went well, then I had problems, you had to reinstall the card at each boot.

GETTING STARTED

The ASIO drivers supplied with the card does not work. Those downloaded from the site (v1.30) work.

After two days, the entry line 1 did not work, I received a new card, even down after 3 days.

I sent several emails to different SAV

The French manufacturer and the customer service did not respond
The English Service has confirmed that there was a fault on the map
Thomann said he was wiser to take another brand (sic)

Bought-in mixer, to have several separate outputs (PFL headphone / master).
-She filled out its function to the mix level quality / price ratio

UTILIZATION

-Install XP without problems.

GETTING STARTED

Drivers-owner not stable at all, I use the drivers Asio4All and I have to check and uncheck the option "Always Resample 44.1 <-> 48.1khz every time I change the program if there is a big problem of buffer, the sound becomes inaudible and ultra crunchy.
I use it to mix on traktor with a Vestax VCI-100, I down a minimum 8ms without major problems, but most of the time I put a 11ms to be sure it will not Bugue, for now I ' I had no problem, I mix with the config for 1 year in concert / club, 11ms latency does not really bother me but the instability of this card does not reassure me. I also use it to record instruments, but the LINE 1 / 2 is dead while I'm doing nothing special about it, and big problems when I record buffer, so useless for recording.

OVERALL OPINION

-I use it for a year or so.
Too-unstable line input 1 / 2 deffectueuse very quickly after purchase.
"I had an Emu-404 and a Terratec Phase 88 FW, have anything, it was of good quality, but then I had the usb compact and not too expensive, and this card is really crappy, to use just to mix, for its two separate outputs for the budget.
