Why is my choice?:
1-L'Interface AUDIO / USB
2-2 pramplis powered Mic fantme

[/ B] BUYING TO AVOID THE GERMAN SITE "Musik-Schmidt Megastore" in their publicity it provides the software sold and the dception rception, no software, they aprsrclamation corrected their site and rfut my request.

UTILIZATION

Trs simple: you plug, you insert the CD, you unplug, it reconnects, it leaves the installation is complete and running.
AFTER 2 AND A HALF MONTHS OF USE: I go back a little on my opinion, it is rgulirement reinstall the drivers, when you unplug the card and reconnect the DSIR is hot.
It is prfrable, After you install the drivers, plug the USB to the PC teind this soon to have reinstall the drivers.

GETTING STARTED

Ormis the fact that we should avoid plugging the card "hot", no problem for drivers in Magix Music Studio 2004
As for the Shift? ultrieurement see.

APRS over 2 months: Still no problem in the studio in 2004.
