Presonus USB Audiobox

UTILIZATION

I do not know if I'm new to mac or not, use a few years behind me (and computer business), but installing this card on Leopard have not been the easiest one: everything is in the utility / Applications / Utilities / Audio MIDI Setup, create an Aggregate Device to access inputs on the card and set it as default device in the system. The Presonus doc does not like this manipulation, for them it is plug and play.

GETTING STARTED

Otherwise, it's happiness in a box because there is no problems. It's been 2-3 weeks since I have the card have not won once. It can easily connect and disconnect as soon as it is disconnected, Leopard will automatically switch on the internal sound card.

What pleased me the most is the quality of the preamp, while I come from the m-audio = push the gain a background to capture a minimum output of the microphone on Presonus, I gain in medium is 0dB and the input level is quite normal and satisfactory, or the word "PREAMP" M-audio take on the seed ...

OVERALL OPINION

For a purchase price by almost half of my old card Firewire 410, I am more than satisfied as it fully meets my expectations. The look is really nice, one small complaint, the headphone jack is behind and not facade, but it's a detail!
