Feature:
has alot of features, mic pres are cool again phantom power would rule...

Quality:
pretty solid. wonder if I'll have problems w/ breakout pigtails further down the line...

Value:
Paid $300 Big Bang for buck! wish I could have waited until they were a lil' cheaper but who doesn't say that?

Desirability:
not super sexy but it does what it needs to do. Someone should create a breakoutbox for this puppy

Sound:
great latency, happy with sound other than occasional interferance...

Support:
I haven't delt with them but a good friend has, and they solved his problem with one email, atleast they do answer emails...

Overall:
I've heard there are issues w/ using multipule m-audio interfaces... these may have been fixed in driver revisions and or firmware upgrades, I DON'T KNOW WISH I HAD TWO AND I COULD TRY IT OUT AND TELL YOU. rca's could have been 1/4" phono plugs, but doesn't really matter, infact it's probably easier on the pigtails

Feature:
The bottom line is that this delivered the goods for me. I was able to smoothly and reliably dump all 8 tracks of my recordings into Adobe Audition at a high quality. Not a lot of features with this...but with what it can do, it does very well!

Quality:
Seems to be pretty well built. For me, I have not run into any problems (yet).

Value:
For the price, you can't go wrong!

Desirability:
Not sexy, but does it well.

Sound:
I purchased this for the sole purpose of mixing/mastering a slew of home 8-track recordings for CD. I was very pleased at how well the audio was input into the PC.

Ease of Use:
I did have to do a little tweaking to get it working with the audio software. But once I got the settings right, it worked like a charm. As others have mentioned, I'm not a big fan of all of the cables dangling out the back of my PC...but for the price, I can live with it.

Overall:
I have been very pleased with this. However, with the lower price of USB/Firewire mixers, I am considering going this route to clean up my workspace a little bit.

Feature:
You can only get the mix out throught output 1&2. I wish I could get from any pair of outputs (3&4, 5&6, or 7&8). Maybe it's not t HW but a SW (driver) limitation, I'm not sure

Quality:
it did not broke so far. I guess it is ok

Value:
good value

Desirability:
lots of cables swiveling cables hang outside my pc. I guess they could provide a plastic rack to make it more organized,.. anyway, although very tangled, it works.

Sound:
so far so good.

Overall:
I'm content with it.

Feature:
al the features are great, I think this is the cheapest way to get 8 24-bit ins to your computer for recording drums. its got every connection there is almost except adat i/o. other then that, 10in/10out....its the best interface at this price. also, dont worry about buying your software first if your getting this card. It come with reason adapted and abelton live LE. not the full programs, but a lot of good stuff. I use the reason adapted as a rewire slave

Quality:
too bad theres no breakout box, and I wish the break out cables were a tad longer, It wouldnt have costed nothing for m-audio, but yeah there a bit short. but once I got everything hooked up back there, I never have had to go behind the comp and tinker. but im not worried something will break, Its not like your going to be moving the card around, Its just as solid as your avarage pci card: Ill be using this card,....for.....a Long time.

Value:
its the best card you can get for a home studio that doesnt have big bucks, but wants to compete with the big studios. thats why i bought it. I feel its worth the money compared to any other interface.

Desirability:
its pretty ugly....hahah but I dont care. I make good music with it, if they just aranged each plug into a nice box you can set on the table....it would have only costed m-audio a bit more....this would have been a card to good to be true.

Sound:
This sounds great. Each output has No noise, and the sound is great and clear. I guess its everything you would expect. but no regrets here.

Support:
I did write m-audio's tech service, they wrote back within a day. the email didnt really answere my question tho. haha

Overall:
its going to meet my needs for....as long as i can look forward. i recommend this card.

Can't beat the multiple I/O for the money. The ASIO drivers offer excellent latency. The built-in mic-preamp is nice, too. Make sure you have plenty of 1/4" to RCA cables, though. This thing has no break-out box for integration into an existing rack. Very glad I bought it!

Feature:
The back of the card breakout cable is ok, but I wish they'd include at least a basic rack interface for this card. The full 1010 has all of this and more, but the light version only has inputs and outputs on back of card. I guess that's why they call it the light version.

Quality:
Good quality.

Value:
Its probably overpriced but ok.

Desirability:
It feels good, it has overall market appeal being a lower priced version of high quality stuff.

Sound:
Sound is wonderful. Subject to a bit of interference from the CD ROM and a few transients, but that could just be my cheap mobo. Crisp clear sound, stable and easy to listen to.

Support:
never dealt with 'em

Overall:
I will wear this out before replacement. I wish I had enough bux to put one back for later use.

Feature:
10 i/o.what more you ask?

Quality:
ADAT sound

Value:
value for money. you dun get this cheap

Desirability:
no regrets and will replace the same if spoilt..if ever.

Sound:
good AD/DA conversion with no crackles,perfect recording recording interface for professional results. no regrets

Ease of Use:
easy sound card

Support:
ok.good

Overall:
Yes. the BEST

Feature:
Good for what it is. I would rather have 10 analog's instead of having only 8. But it is good.

Sound:
With the right knowledge of miking amps and drums, you can get very professional results. It's not the card that makes studio, it's the operator. Great recording, no pops, low to no latency (usually none).

Yo if you are into creating your own music and don't want to spend a hell of a lot of money on your soundcard this is the solution. Mic Pres (Not Phantom Power though :(.) But still it has SPDIF Ins and Outs and the 10 Analog ins and outs. Midi is lovely latency is extremelly low (Great Control Panel Interface and ASIO drivers). You get a lot of bang for your buck!
