No incompatibility.
Easy configuration after having toured the owner.
No paper manual, but the interface is intuitive therefore goes.

IMPLEMENTATION

The drivers are stable, set day via the Internet.
I use Cubase SX3 creature with no latency.

NOTICE GLOBAL

For now some experience in computer music I can say that with this machine and a good PC, it is conceivable to produce BIG SOUND PRO and a qu'honnte price.
To be totally perfect, this machine mriterait have:
- A SECOND plug headphones with volume indpendant
- ... And that was it for me; -}

The preamps simulation 2ports microphone, its simplicity.
for the home studio, really powerful computer ...
mixcraft recording, magix Samplitude 16 and others.

I use it with a mixer behringer 1002 and a PreSonus preamp TubePre.

USE

very stable, normal development days
2piste simultaneously
a very very low latency as the sequencer

IMPLEMENTATION

installing a little galley,
Control: no problem
any compatible
no need for manual, VEU ON TEST LIVE!

more than a year, the amp simulation are at the top even if the sim,
Easy to play, Easy Register
I have to buy for voi mainly.

quality prices are fair, the ass hole ca always pay the price when no sub but it must be

I will not go that choice because it's my first sound card.
voilou!

I t attracted by the cot practice of the craft to make quick mockups.
I was looking for the connections are full of sounds of guitars and basses trsralistes in all styles, voices, etc ...
I do my demos on it and it's been good.
I have a dual core with 2GB ram and I have not had complaints.

Line 6 guitars simulations, the top!

For some sonorits is stunning!

USE

1 - You installed.
2 - You branches.
3 - It works.

A quick look at the pdf doc (in English), small bet day pilot, and that's cool.
Ps: do not forget to disable the internal sound card.

IMPLEMENTATION

-Two Tracks simultaneous recording.
-It's Very stable, see perfectly stable, as long as it is configured his computer.
-Latence Inaudible.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I have 2 years and I love her practicit especially for simus guitars. It was very fast all the styles you want and it's trsraliste see bluffing.
It's really east to the guys (and girls) who want to save or Jamer on PC, without taking the mouth to endless amp outlets that give nothing because it was not the gear or knowledge n sary.

The pros:
-the realism of simulations (guitar, bass, Pramp)
-the possibility to turn the amp arsenal
-the handling very simple for beginners in computer music.
-the Gearbox and Podfarm software crashing.
-The report quality price
-drivers very stable and often updated.
srieux -the from LINE6

The -:

-The Output converters are not the best in the marchc'est clair.Je just spent RME (Fireface 400) and this is the day and night but it's not the same price.
-The case is a little cheap because plastoc.
MIDI -no
-some really terrible effects.

I find the price-quality ratio nickel.On was quick to record bass lines, guitars and modern and fully GPs voice.
Here are some demos ralises exclusively with this card this address:

www.myspace.com/goodchlorine

Guitars, bass and vocals recorded with the voice Gearbox.Les software are recorded with direct SM57 plugg in Pramp of the card.

It is sold with the squenceur + Ableton, I'm never used but it seems that it's top.
on the other hand I do not do the same choice because I do not often buy 2 times the same thing .........

My choice was based on a semi-pro or pro enregsitrement desire for a ridiculously low price and ease of use.
I use it with studio monitors and I can say that the simulation of a real amp is breathtaking. I also use a Jackson RR3 with Seymour Duncan.
The coupled Podfarm software works with zero latency on my old Compaq presario CQ-61.

UTILIZATION

It is very easy to use. It installs Podfarm which provides access to many guitar amps, bass, effects pedals, compressor, EQ, reverb, speakers etc., are installed with line6 monkey that summarizes what you have installed and if an update is available and line6 license manager that allows you to check the compliance of your device and install additional packages without doing anything! Everything is done automatically!
Level latency here I am 190ms. It is huge but it is possible that my pc is not powerful enough. This does not affect the sound however.
The sound card itself has two instrument inputs 6.35, two mic inputs with phantom power, a USB port and outputs 6.35. Presets in Podfarm are also great for guitar and bass for voice. Reverb and other effects are there to give a voice perfect for recording sound. You can record a voice and an instrument not simultaneously but not both instruments. Too bad I say.

GETTING STARTED

Installation, as I said, very simple. Everything is guided with line 6 monkey and line 6 license manager. You just have to let yourself be guided without any difficulty.
The documentation is clear

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year I would say. I used to think about buying a sound card to get a cleaner for my enresitrements sound. I came across this one and I must say that I am still under the spell.
I recently bought a new pack with other amp models. I just needed to get my credit card code and launch line 6 license manager to accept the installation of the new package. In two seconds it was done.

The value for money is immbattable. Line 6 are really the kings of the amp simulation.

For all that is connection, I invite you to visit the line6 quite well stocked with product documentation.

I bought this product there are at least five years, so this is the first version (not the case in all black, but I do not know if there is a real difference apart from the color).

The connection is pretty well supplied.
I use a packard bell easynote LJ65 XP, no problem.

UTILIZATION

Few times it took me to reinstall the drivers because did not recognize the card, but whenever we go again niquel. This should happen once every two years on average. It is fairly stable as a product.
Podfarm software, at least the free version so light is quite honorable. While we mess a bit to find a good sound as presets provided are a bit lousy but worth the cost to look to find it sounds very good.
I do not use a mic or instrument input. This is where I regret not having taken UX1 version. I like the meters ... Is this a valid argument to justify the purchase? These gadgets are pretty ...
No excessive latency.
It is not easy to record two instruments simultaneously. In any case I do not get it.
You can play with his guitar (in my case it is only electric guitars). With a low it also works well, at least the few times I did lai. For the song that is also the case, but my experience in this area remains limited.

GETTING STARTED

The implementation is simple, it plugs into a USB port you open the software and you can play, it is very simple and it works.
Really no worries on that side is still very fun to play with, you can make models with guitar sounds quality. In any case sounds crunches or saturated (for crystal clear sound and I've never really tried to like acoustic sounds).

I've tested this with the sound card software Peavey ReValver, it worked well too.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this product for at least five years. Never a failure, never a problem and yet it has come a long way, he fell many times. The knobs do not always spit. No false contact. It's really tough.
The kind I have tried any other product, except for a small sound card comes with a behringer mixer, it was not as easy to use and yet the connection is much lower.
With the experience I'd rather have the UX1, smaller and less bristling with gadgets such as the meters ...
This is a good product, although I have not tested other brands to compare.
In conclusion, ux2 has never disappointed

What characteristics have motivated your choice?

I want a simple effective and inexpensive


For what purpose?

I originally purchased for various recordings just to keep track of what I do and as an aid to the composition. However, it is effective enough to be recording my demo group.

What is your config (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Hard, ...)?

Currently I'm on a mac book pro 15 inch i7 and all bazard but it works really bad ... Being in Montain lion ... Line 6 has not updated these drivers. Otherwise ca before I was on a PC ASUS Core 2 Duo with 4GB of DDR2 ram and ca walked really well.

With which instruments or systems (console, preamp, DtD ...) you use it and how connections?
Generally, I only use the pod and I made the decision to mic an amp

UTILIZATION

The drivers are stable?

Yes on windows xp, vista and 7 (the other I do not know) and not on OS X Lion Montain


Are they often updated?

not all 4 mornings, but except on my bp ca drivers will yeah.


What software do you use most often?

Cubase, adobe audition and I quickly try with logic and garage band


What latency you get?

I never watched because I never see signs of a high latency


How many tracks you get to record / playback simultaneously? ...

Read as much as you want but save max is 2 and still it's been tinkering still

GETTING STARTED

The installation is done it without problems?

If you can plug a guitar into an amp you will use the After beast ^ ^ if it is used in transplanting dampli like what I do, most of microphone placement is what!


Have you encountered any incompatibilities?

Yes Mac OS X Lion Montain


The general configuration is easy?

child


The manual is clear and sufficient?

I do not know ^ ^

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you been using?

I know exactly ^ ^ I would say around 5 years ^ ^


What is so special that you like most and least?

Pros: It's simplicity and efficiency
Cons: The models I find cold and real interest. (I'm a former model UX2 I understand that the right to have new pod so I just farm2 not speak above)


Did you try many other models before buying it?

Nop, I am persuaded by inte


How do you rate the quality / price?

good price and I got

With experience, you do again this choice?

At the same price, yes, more expensive, I would see a little be looking a little more elsewhere before that choice.

Home studio use to compose and maquetter.

UTILIZATION

Use as a modeler amp for guitars and bass, but also for voice.
For use between beginner and amateur perfect!
I personally did not use pro preferring to record in real studios with competent people but enough to compose completely.
Little breath, two Mic and Instrument input that can be used in simult.
Perfect

GETTING STARTED

mac: impeccable!

OVERALL OPINION

Very good Value for money.
If you're not making do with a battery and you have a small mixer in sup so it will suffice to work.

I used two and two UX1 UX2 ... for two years.
They are toys, not more. While useful in some occasions ^ ^

UTILIZATION

Latency huge ordis with top notch ...
For guitar amps and effects (in addition have to pay for it) are unnecessary and too musical. I assume my tastes.

GETTING STARTED

Easy installation, but realizes he must still pay for the "good" version of each software, which is swelling

OVERALL OPINION

The UX do not even compare to my old BOSS BR600, or my digitech 155 rotten that has no latency USB connection. This is a disgrace, and I paid the price 4 times to find out.

What characteristics have motivated your choice?
Easy to use, fairly complete in terms of connectivity
With which instruments or systems (console, preamp, DtD ...) you use it and how connections? ...
Used on a desktop pc and a branch in portable.Je my bass instrument input alone and then I use the pod farm simus or I intercalates between the two and my VT Bass effects using my pod farm without simus (except the effects I do not have pedals).
For what purpose?
Model before and repeated work with the instrument playing guitar pro 6 or cd directly.

UTILIZATION

The drivers are stable?
No problems so far. Update on from time to time ...
What latency you get?
I do not know. If there is latency, I did not realize.

GETTING STARTED

The installation is done it without problems?
Yes. Well, with my XP desktop pc, it's a little strange to have to accept installation of non-program recommended by windows.
The general configuration is easy?
Very easy and intuitive.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you been using?
This should make 3 or 4 years now it seems.
Did you try many other models before buying it?
No. Perhaps it is for this reason that I did not find any fault!
What is so special that you like most and least?
Convenient for most, is not coffee for less ...
How do you rate the quality / price?
With experience, you do again this choice? ...
The price / quality ratio I agreed. Now, perhaps there are cheaper and equally effective for the choice ... so, I think so based on what the competition offers.

I was looking for a card for me to record the bass, and it allowed me to explore the computer music, and wanting me to delve more deeply. I used it with a guitar, bass and vocals ... but the preamps are a bit tight. Same for converters, I made a good recording with external preamp, and once back in the sound card, I have not found the sound I expected. I used it to make demos for songs up quickly-made, not to lose my thoughts ... but for further use, I quickly found myself stuck.

UTILIZATION

The stability of the drivers is really not his strengths, and again the system has crashed, and if you did not save before all is lost, more must restart the OS to be used again. In contrast mac, I have not had this trouble. Used in reaper, but without gearbox, which I find to be done by hand after guitarig with AmpliTube or more required of him.

From 12 tracks, with a few more, the beast was hard to follow ...

For latency, latency 7ms.

GETTING STARTED

Installation, configuration, everything is simple unnamed ... I went home after RME, and it is much more complicated with EMR, there is too much too simple.

OVERALL OPINION

I kept 4 years, and she made her taff to use simple, it is more than enough, although since the time it became very light face with new products. It still lacks an I / O noon, spdif, while entry-level cards have now.
