What motivated me to buy it: The brand combo inputs, self-supplied function "auto-sense" the advice of an engineer.

I use this sound card on an iMac and a MacBook Pro Home Studio or live session and I'm very satisfied
(Config: Intel i7, 12GB RAM)

UTILIZATION

For my part I have used on Mac, and drivers have never posed a problem for me on this point, no crash sequencer (Logic Pro), really ultra-stable!
- When recording, I am limited to two tracks Jack / XLR and I am using almost never optical inputs.

- In reading, I read projects 8-24 tracks without problem (be careful to have a computer that runs behind!)

- The drivers are updated with each new version of Mac OS!

- On my iMac I get a latency of 8ms and 6ms on my MacBook Pro.

GETTING STARTED

Installation without any difficulty (on Mac always), the panel is very clear, with the ability to adjust the compressors.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this sound card for 2 years, I have also tried other sound cards or almost the same range (M-Audio, Line 6, etc.) and there really is a big difference between these cards and the Quad- Capture! We really feel like spending a beginner to a pro really sound!
Indeed, this sound card has everything a great preamps since embarked worthy of the biggest sound cards and is found in incredible detail whether recording or playback!

So I think the quality / price is really unbeatable in this range and I even thought about buying a second to increase the number of tracks!
