«  For Maoist Kamikaze only »

Published on 12/19/10 at 10:13
up to 6 among records in simultaneous, MIDI In and Out, SPDIF output, and supply Phantom of sampling 24-bit 96KHz up, the pots of rglage source for each channel and everything comes with CUBASE 5 LE for 240 euros, c'tait too good ...

Because obviously, there is a "but"!
Remember, my setup is a PC rcent purchased specifically for (re) Get You Started computer music: Pentium Dual Core 3.33, 4GB SDRAM with Windows 7 64 bit.

USE

Audio engistrements few of my saxophone are of good quality, CAN converters hold water; one expects no less than TASCAM. However not test the Pramp '(sorry!) Because my microphone AKG dj food. Is it the same that quipent 1641 ??
The pots of rglage source are not too cheap; you can really use it.

Finally, ct practice, a few minor complaints:
Mandatory power sector
No of Hi-Z
No direct monitoring button "Zr latency"
Phantom Power that command to all entries.

Everything would not be too serious - for the price - if the beast deigned work. Starting with the fact that Windows does not recognize the boot, so you have the dye and again (no ON / OFF button, so let's have fun with the power supply wire 'my friends!). But the use, sudden message "USB device No. Recognize" are not uncommon, and try to reconfigure the road being something seriously harms the health of Win7! And your musical creations also ...


IMPLEMENTATION

Installation is quick and is done without problem.

The document "Important Notes" and under "Known Issues" (known problems) make you smart ear not Get You Started with a jack branch not send MIDI signals while launching Cubase, do not touch the USB cable ... the pig is sensitive. And even respecting these prcautions, apart lollipop one time or another!
The TASCAM support seems dbord and answer is: "Call us at the 04 0 .....".



NOTICE GLOBAL

If we add the specific problems of CUBASE LE 5, which obviously (like AI) does not support some VST developed to plant this couple US800 - Cubase LE 5 is a veritable hell for the Maoist!

The moral of this story is that the teams of development TASCAM are surely focused on trsrpandues machinery (US 1641 ...) c .... the few believing in the US 800 will wait to obtain a stable driver!

Not me anyway, because the machine is already back the sender!
