Best value: Excellent
The price is attractive and the number of I / O is sufficient for p'tit Home Studio. The USB side is more attractive!
I use it on a PC PIII 1GHz and 512 RAM.
I plug all live on this card (except XLR is a pity he is not at least one entry), as four microphones to make batteries a little fun. I spend most of the time by a small console to signal a cleaner and more powerful when I do the other instruments and vocals to a track by track.

UTILIZATION

Quick installation it's good, even if there is still taf at the configuration of the software used music. It is not top at all with audacity for the connoisseur, as only two I / O work much.
Once stabilized card + software + computer system used, the quattro saver comfortable with the possibility of execution and offers a warmer sound than many sound cards called "more productive". Getting started is easy and no frills manual is clear in cases of doubt.

GETTING STARTED

The drivers are performing is updated directly by the manufacturer that offers the course on the m-audio site.
The card can be used with software home studio ... Audacity and other small interfaces (which are admittedly very good) does not support all I / O Be careful before you buy, know if Qattro is compatible with your software prenneur sound!
Side one is latency is rather quiet ... A little lag at times but in any case, nothing prevents a comfortable working.

OVERALL OPINION

My card is pretty old but it turns nickel treated it like the rest, you take care of the studio!
Its most obvious is the price but at that price too, it was not all that would be! It remains a good value for money all the same!

+ Side: Price, USB, sound, I / O JACK 6.35 and noon, the right treatment (although some warmer more expensive ones)

Side: no headphone jack and it's hard, no phantom power, no pre-amp, not compatible with all the little ones music software.

This card is great for the track by track, but it is essential to a small console for it to take a little road back for him and better signals.

The 4-track Simultaneous it works, but for me only a battery, just to do something a little better than one or two entries.

I concluded by saying that I am satisfied with my card and I have to Pali faults quite easily. Using a console to complement and out (the most beautiful and best signal possible patch headphones ...)

Hello and see what this is knowing your exact needs! No need to own a card with 10 times too much stuff that will never be used and we pay anyway!
