«  Robust, Practical, Good Sound, No Latency »

Published on 12/16/11 at 02:49
I have a notebook PC running Seven. I use Ableton8 and Sonar7
4GB ram, three-year old dual core Intel processor

I was looking for a mobile and sturdy sound card with hybrid Jack/XLR connections, 48V phantom power and quality preamps.

I couldn't decide between the M-Audio Mobile Pre MKII and this one
The shop assistant recommended me this one for only $10 more.

UTILIZATION

I still haven't downloaded the latest drivers, but the ones included on the CD work fine (although I don't have the benefit of hindsight, since I've had it one week only)

I can get 3ms latency at 16bits/44Khz (I haven't tried the other modes)

GETTING STARTED

No issues during installation
No incompatibilities
I still haven't read the manual, because the interface is self-explanatory


OVERALL OPINION

I've had it for a week and don't regret anything! I once had the Line 6 TonePort UX2, then the Line6 HD 500 pedalboard (which doubles as an external sound card) ... And well, you can tell the difference.

I love the knob to mix the input signal and the sound from the PC ... Very practical to record without the need to touch the source volume

The value for money is very good

I recommend this card to anyone looking for a robust, mobile card with no latency
