How many tracks you get record / playback simultaneously?

I avoid using the direct monitoring because it is the only fault I found with this card
it lacks punch and it saturates too quickly for my taste so I prefer to go through the monitoring of Samplitude that makes me use more resources but much more pleasant to use.
Sometimes I make a mix between the two, just to relieve some of the system using the reverb (not transcendent but troubleshoots) and some compression and Rolande GuitarRig for bass on the daw.

Are they often updated?
- No idea, for now it is moving.

What you get lag?

These include what has guided my purchase very recent Friday, October 18, 2013.

My config: Imac 27 "/ I7 / 3.5 ghz / 32 gb memory / Osx V.10.8.5 / DD 3 Tera drive fusion
Software: Logic Pro 9 and Logic Pro X

UTILIZATION

Installation on Mac fast and without any problems.
But after it goes bad!

GETTING STARTED

The first test has been short: (reading from the test provided on the installation CD was good but with his untimely cuts and repeated random sample).
After launching Logic Pro 9 ditto, impossible to work on a full piece (existing arrangement and went perfectly on my card Edirol UA 101 FW)!

All testing and modification of the buffer memory samples in the audio settings have not done anything!
Test in Logic Pro X ditto sound interruptions with a single drum track (loop) read!
Visit the support site to download the Roland driver (other than on the CD-ROM) or an update and surprise there anything about 1610 AU! unknown to the battalion!

The animal may be too recent? my computer too? or internal bug?

I give up and return to the store tomorrow! I'll end up regretting my UA 101 I fortunately preserved!

OVERALL OPINION

Duration of use so a weekend! If a quick fix is ​​not offered to me I think I'll change creamery ... RME probably!
To be continued ....
