"The best home studio recording card for $100"

Feature:
Unbeatable features if you want to do home recording. One nice feature is that you can save mixer sessions for easy recall if you need to have different setups for different software.

Value:
If your looking for a super duper sound card, this is not it. But if your looking to do high quality recording on your PC, you can't buy a better card for $100 than this.

Sound:
24 bit at 44.1kHz and 48kHz sampling is fine for me. 96kHz is only available through the S/PDIF digital interfaces.

Support:
None needed so far.

Overall:
I have P4 with 1GB RAM and running WinXP Pro. I use Cakewalk's Home Studio 2 in ASIO driver mode. With my old built-in sound card the VST pluggins had terrible latency, but with the 404 I can't detect any now. I am very pleased with this card, but I recommend you read the manual to take full advantage.

"Off the chain works for me in Memphis Tn"

Feature:
this card includes everything you need. you dont need any hardware but a preamp. you apply the effect to your input before it ever touches you software recording program. for all you out there read the maual. its not a plug & play type thing. you half to understand how it works in order to get its full benifit. I payed $100 the audiophile is like twice that with no effects. then the effect work as vst's in side you software with no lag an your proccesor. This is buy far the best pc sound card on the market at this price. The emu line is the best line of sound card on the market. Forget all the other stuff no mixer or hardwarer needed!! Its the!! I own this and it work great never had a problem. dont listen to the reviews of people who cant read a manual

Quality:
Its great and reliable

Value:
i would expect this product to cost 3 times what i paid

Desirability:
that i got it a 1010 delta or a 828 im good

Sound:
the sound quality is great. neck & neck with the audiophile if not better.

Overall:
dont know what else it can do for for you unless puffdaddy himself came and recorded you. No bull it works if yours does not ill buy it look for BuggzBeatz on the net contact me and ill send you a bill
