Value:
worth the money! Pick it over a delta 1010 anyday of the week. Also if you like just kicking back and listening to music these dsp effect add a lot to your musical experience. Sound quality obviously beats the hell out of any of creative's mainstream soundcards.

Sound:
Sound quality along with the DSP effects are awesome. You can do a lot with this little system, and has produced a lot of clean takes for me. The preamps are are good, work well with my e609/e602 sennheiser mics. Also the analog inputs in the back are going to be used by my shure sm57's. All in all it's a great product. PS: They are dragging arse on the vista drivers so use xp for now.

Feature:
Awesome Mic Pres and AD/DA converters (same as Pro Tools HD 192). Patch Mix DSP software lets you monitor vocals wet but record dry with no latency for the vocalist. Awesome!

Value:
You won't find a better card for the money! Even if it was the same price as Fireface 400, this is better!

Sound:
Better sepcs and sound quality than any of the RME interfaces. I'm running Vista (32-bit) and can set the ASIO buffer to 2ms in Ableton Live without any issues.

Ease of Use:
Patch Mix DSP takes a few minutes to get your head around.

Support:
They actually answer the phone when you call! Very cool people. I had a question about using the PCI card in my Dell with PCI-X slots. Works great.

Feature:
the zero latency monitoring is awesome & very easy to use with FLStudio 8.

Quality:
i doubt there's a interface under a $1000 thats better. the only negitive is you must keep them cool. they will overheat, causing malfunctions. i keep a fan blowing above mine when i'm not recording.

Value:
nothing compares in it price range. it has the came converters as a protools set up.

Desirability:
it's nothing aestheticly pleasing, but i could care less.

Sound:
i record vocals & acoustic guitar using the E-MU 1616M PCI & AT4040 mic. Very pleased.

Ease of Use:
there's a learning curve. but it's worth it.

Support:
their support is garbage. email only, they ussualy take 2 days to respond. to my knowledge EPR electronics no longer repairs E-MU's interfaces due to E-MU's lack of support. fortunately i havent needed support on my 1616M PCI in 2 years

Overall:
overall it's the best

Feature:
I think it pretty much has every accessories you need.

Quality:
This is my first professional soundcard, and I am very satisfied with the Quality of this product. It does not have a cheep feel to it.

Value:
It's worth the money! Don't let anyone fool you.

Desirability:
It looks very nice.

Sound:
Sounds amazing! I don't think you get any better for the price.

Ease of Use:
Though the sound is amazing, the patchmix can be hard to understand. Once you figured it all out, it's really easy and direct. Just drag the FX to the channel and let the DSP do all the work.

Support:
I don't had to use support yet.

Overall:
I just bought it, I think I'm going to use it for a long time. It does meet my musical goals. I would buy it all over agaig.

Feature:
It came with all the basic accessories.

Sound:
A lot better than the Soundblaster Audigy 2ZS that I had. Sounds Great! BUT...

Ease of Use:
BUT I had this thing for a week and feel like throwing it back in the box and sending it back. The Patchmix console that you're supposed to use with the interface is so f*cking confusing it's ridiculous. I have tried it with Adobe Audition 1.5, Magix Samplitude 10 and Wavelab, all with very inconsistent results. Just when I thought could record, I'd duplicate it, and there's no sound. When I do get sound running through the mic, there's no playback. WTF??

Support:
I haven't contacted support yet but I will.

Overall:
For now.
