Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Bought DSP version recently, and despite some reviews talking about rather high latency on this interface, my latency measurement result with CE_Latency program was about 8.5um round trip latency with 128 buffer size (11.5um round-trip latency with 256 buffer), which is which is usable for my purpose of simple recording w/o VST. FYI, CE_Latency program actually sends a pulse to the interface, then measures time it takes to receive return signal.
It uses Mix Control program (ver 2.2 now) to control Input mix, VRM, Reverb, Compressor, and works well with Windows7 64bit OS. It also worked fine on 2yr old Core2Duo laptop (windows XP, Cubase LE) with 256 buffer size. Curiously, on the laptop it drops recording (stops recording after a few minutes) if buffers larger than 256 were used. This is a little puzzling to me (sort of counter-intuitive since generally increasing buffer size is supposed to stabilize data flow..), but since it does work well with 256 buffer size, I am keeping it.
MixControl SW looked confusing at first with rather large set of functions (InputFX, VRM, routing, other DSP options), but with video instruction online (on their website) it was not hard to learn to use it.
Overall, it appears to be more advanced and more flexible than simpler interfaces (I have used Yamaha GO46 and Tascam 1641) and DSP Reverb/compressor is indeed quite useful with Zero-latency monitoring.
