All user reviews of 5/5 for the M-Audio Mobilepre Usb

I have a pc team of like a sound card chipset, not wanting to m 'venture into the bios I have the opt for it.
I have long hsit between audiophile usb and it rflxion but after his report quality price Devana that of the audiophile usb.
quiped a prampli, this card is perfect (and my taste for the price ...) I use it with a Expelec (for the effects of scrambled a little story ) and a sm58 the c1 from a friend (with rglages of c1 that is a perfect sound that I 'get. moreover I' have a command)
treatment is 16-bit unfortunate.

UTILIZATION

IT IS that branch the card into the USB port and run the driver could not be easier.
manual review.
small problem with the chipset's rsolu the first week.

GETTING STARTED

Driver correct.
choice latency.
j using a 10aine track and share software problems (acid, cubase! nothing to do with the sound card) I 've never had anything.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about one month and a half and I 'm satisfied with trs.
I am in agreement with prampli Intgr.
I had before the Sound Blaster Extigy your exact and can be heard (haha )
trs qualitprix good value.
I'll opt for ending for something more "pro" ().

Simple, practical, effective and no more CHRE.
and all this to record sound with my laptop and my microphone, I my everything in my backpack and voila I have my home studio on lee back.

UTILIZATION

The instalation n'apas t very easy, I'm all over the net to find a plug that works.

GETTING STARTED

Using impeccable; simple practical genial.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years what I like most is its weight and its simplicity of use, you plug in the USB and voila it works.
I ssay before the Mbox but I dcu t and in addition it is more CHRE bcp.
If I had the choice again I would do it again right away.
this is the first time I am also telling of a computer purchase music.

I chose this audio interface for the report posiblites / cot.
I use it on a PC desktop P4 3Go/1Go Ram/Win2K and on my laptop in Centrino1.7/768 MB Ram / WinXP in between live with guitar / bass, synth table MIX.

UTILIZATION

The instalation is done in 10 minutes with a redmarage of windows.
Once you have installed an icon in the bare spots that you provided access to rglages.
The three panels of adjustable features fader (input, input monitoring, Out) Droulez with a menu for adjusting the latency.

GETTING STARTED

In terms of drivers, always go to the download site M-Audio dernierre version as ab.
Its stable ASIO drivers without problems on Reason, Cubase, etc ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use this card from an I following years and fully satisfied, just as my needs volumes over time, I'll move to another M-AUDIO with more output and MIDI input + and may be for firewire, but I did not DCID.

TRS is a good base map for any self-respecting computer music, quality simple, efficient and above all affordable trs. So for RAPORT QualitPrix I advise anyone who has or beginners who do not want to ruin in ultra-pro cards that are not gnralement operates more than 30%.

It is a removable card with phantom power drawn directly from the USB (that's cool), so no need to drag a transformer.
USB 1.1 only, which is handy when you fall on a machine not equipped with USB2 ports.
The two inputs accept all levels (micro, guitar, online).
I use it as his main card, and to record my bass tracks (through a bass Vamp)
The sampling frequency is 48kHz max in 16bit, it is more than enough for home studio use and will turn pro anyway towards more complex and more expensive.

UTILIZATION

We can not much simpler (tested under Win XP SP1):
- Run the installer
- Reboot (shame though)
- Connect the USB cable

It is directly recognized, his fate now.

There's just a question about the optimization of CD players that can be bewildering, as not really well explained.

GETTING STARTED

The motto: simplicity
At the software level, the mixer is very bare, but it takes no brainer. We find immediately how it works. It is directly recognized in all audio software.

At the hardware level, it meets my expectations. Noise level low enough, the USB cable is long enough, the buttons have a correct key, the diodes are useful.

Just one small problem, shame about the second line input is on the rear. It is less convenient when you want to connect a stereo RCA, the left front and right rear, it needs to flourish cord.

OVERALL OPINION

For the price (175 euros in playback.fr vpc) is nickel. The universality of the USB and the abscence of the transformer makes it truly mobile (you still remember the driver cd when we start with the case under the arm).
Remember: The ease of use. Record two tracks without taking the lead.
I wonder: is it possible to connect two MobilePre on the same machine to record four tracks at once?

2 input jack or XLR
recording of my electronics and battery out of my mixer
Mackie DFX-6

UTILIZATION

Installation very easy with cubase sx2
no imcompatibilitbr /> configuration frankly easy and clear even to someone not expert can easily understand
leaves by hand against a vague explanation pe adsir but hey you are not besion!

GETTING STARTED

For all that is to update driver etc etc. I never really big problem for them a surprise to the levels!

I use Cubase SX2, Logic 5.5, or soon protools sonar 7

no latency except when my computer is running a very normal background can not demand the moon too!

Registration 2pistes simultanment if I can record (two at a time) and play a 15 or 16 With easy APRS I have not done more because not besion!

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 8mois
I really like are expensive and can practice cot
I do not like something that we desire to unite quickly to something more important with 8 or more input to make vraix frustatrion mix of pix but we keep it!
I esy that the!
report qualitprix trs honest!
I have not besion to pass on something more important but if I had to rest on 2piste YES then sit without

This is a review of the M-Audio MobilePre USB Audio Interface. I had bought this piece of equipment right when I started producing. I was ignorant to the game, and I was not totally sure on exactly what I wanted. I walked into the music store and explained my situation to the clerk, and he pointed me to this interface. I was shocked at the price, but after a little research, I was convinced that this was as low as the price can go for a USB interface. I used this interface as a primary soundcard, preamp, and audio interface for all my monitoring and recording needs. I had a relatively new computer and it was really easy to install. I use is for a microphone. I needed to get the mic signal from Point A, the mic, to Point B, my computer.

UTILIZATION

When I installed it, it was automatically detected. I had to download some drivers, but once I saw the Windows XP bubble pop up that said "Found New Hardware: MobilePre," I was pleased but also suspicious because it was never that easy. It was. There were almost no compatibility issues. I had to learn some things with regards to setting up my default Audio Input/Output settings in Windows and in Reaper, but this was a problem that I soon grew out of. The general configuration setup couldn't have been easier. The manual was easy to use, and it outlined everything that could be done. I was happy with it.

GETTING STARTED

When I installed it, I realized that the drivers were almost always working properly. I could unplug it, and hear the little jingle through my computer's soundcard that there was hardware removed. If I plugged headphones into the MobilePre when it was unplugged, and plugged the MobilePre back in, I would hear the jingle from the MobilePre. Couldn't be much simpler. However, there were sometimes issues when the sound would get very static-y, and muddy, and everything was lower in pitch. A simple restart always fixed it. Latency was low in Reaper as well as Audacity. The headphones were nice because I could monitor the tracks. Because it's a USB device, you can only record two tracks at a time. For somebody who really only records vocals, this is not an issue.

Some nice features that I would like to tell you guys of are the sort of idiot lights they have on it. If it's clipping your sound, it has a light for you. It will let you know exactly when and if it's clipping in real time via a little light next to the gain switch. Also, there's a signal light next to the clipping light that'll tell you if it's getting sound from the device plugged in. That way, you will know exactly where the base of the problem is, instead of believing that the instrument is working fine and looking at your PC. This is your middleman, and you can get to the root of the problem. Also, there is a dedicated 1/8" headphone jack as well as a master 1/8" jack so you don't have to mess with pesky 1/4" adapters. Also, the headphone jack has a dedicated knob for volume. For people who use budget microphones for podcasting, it also has a 1/8" stereo mic jack for your microphone if your soundcard can't swing it.

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using it for various tasks for the last year and a half. I enjoyed the usability of it as well as how user-friendly it was with the clipping lights and the signal lights. It's a very simple interface, perfect for somebody who doesn't need all the fancy stuff that a mixer has. Like I needed to, you get your signal from Point A to Point B. The cons, however, were petty. The headphone jack came a little loose so I have to angle the jack on my headphones to get full stereo sound. Also, the blue light burned out on the interface, but it's really a non-issue. It's a tough little piece of hardware. It's great for those starting out, and at the price, it's pretty easy to get. Cop it if you need something simple and easy to use, and if you're not recording a Symphony Orchestra.
