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.

Feature:
The software bundle alone is worth the price of admission. I was a Home studio user so the Sonar LE software was a nice little upgrade. The dsp effects are neat, although I was slightly disappointed in that you can't use more than one or two at time in real time.
Quality:
Seems well built....no forseen issues here.
Value:
What a deal....very happy with purchase
Desirability:
For the price it's awesome. About the only thing more you could ask for is additional I/O or a break out box.
Sound:
Blows away what I had before (Trutle beach Santa Cruz)
The included Protesus X soft synth sounds great (although it is a CPU hog!)
Support:
Excellent. EMU responded almost instantly to my e-mail to inform me of Flash Bios update. Only frustrating because I bought the card on a Friday night and wanted to play with it all weekend but EMU support wasn't available over the weekend
Overall:
Don't know what all the negative hype is about how hard it is to use. Read the manual and get help from EMU support, because what you get for $100 is pretty awesome.
