Value For Money :
Excellent
my config
intel pc quad core i5 2.5 to (including a dedicated hard 3disques files cubase, sonar) and 8 GB of memory motherboard ASUS P7P55D
I use one with a preamp JOEMEEK q spdif and preamp engl e 530 live, m audio Keystation keyboards, bass guitars and microphones more course (57 sm, akg perception 220 (disappointing), rode nt1a (great) , a future and a di spl doldmike avalon u5)
characteristics that motivated my choice is the USB (to be sure not to gallery with the chipsets), the number of inputs and outputs, quality preamps, the AD / DA converters, it seemed to be the best value prices, it does not really race condition in its price range I think at least with that capacity, from the Fireface UC is still more expensive and whose half-rack format I did not, and finally, the reputation Motu has finally convinced me
UTILIZATION
I use cubase sonar 5 and 8, I record track by track, so no idea how many tracks can be recorded at the same time, but many I think, over the map really relieves the CPU of the computer that takes scarcely
drivers often updated ... well I went for the 64-bit drivers on the website of motu, but good once it works well, it's no use to a day especially if you are not connected to Internet. .. not like c with line 6 which updates its maps every month ... horrible (I speak conaissance case being happy?? owner of a tone port UX2 dailleurs I'll sell!
the drivers are stable, so good, small spot that needs to be reported from time to time c from time to time, the card is (rarely) click click stressantlorsque enough listening to the audio but the problem is rule by turning off the map and on again, again I have encountered this problem only rarely (2 times) so no stress, c the only problem I have encountered so far
I find that the card pretty hot after 5 / 6 hours of use but hey I think c designed for ....
good I am a 5ms latency input and output about 6, but we can do better by setting the buffer size I think it suits me I very much ....... you amaze me! :: DDDD
GETTING STARTED
I thought I gallery for more than that to install, good cue mix is super simple, I was a little anxious to return to the universe motu but that c is no problem, the general config is very easy, very easy to take control of my ca took about one hour to tour the beast
the manual on the installation disk is in English but in the french can easily download and the 64-bit drivers on the net (note the manual is the firewire 828, but exactly the same c!)
I put 9 because the 64-bit drivers are not on the cd so internet connection required
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for almost a month, I read many reviews on all the cards on the market and well-studied benefits disadvantages USB, PCI, Firewire and in the end I opted for this card that does up the m 'that has brought satisfaction, finally my compositions sound pro, airy, clean, balanced, we are no free lunches, it is necessary to pay the price, 700 c true that E (in store) ... it does well evil, but we are disappointed not true that c relative to the aforementioned line 6 ben c ... how to say the day and night, the difference between c and mumuse to make mao
I do it again this election easily, unless I win a one million euro I offer the apogee!
