Feature:
The extra software struck me as being a bit of a sell out. Basically, advertising products that I don't want. I felt kind of ambushed by that and wasted a few hours trying to figure them out. I know now; they're Frisbees! The unit is fine though.

Quality:
It's what it's supposed to be. Small & functional. I honestly couldn't care less about the appearance. (Which is fine, by the way) Seems quite well made.

Value:
Short answer... "Yes" it's worth the money because it's a must have.

Desirability:
I'm giving you five points for the blue light.

Ease of Use:
My needs are simple. I want to get clean sound from a good mic, into my PC. This is all I need, for now. The sound is excellent and the unit does not create any problems for me. I'll pass this one along to a friend when I decide to upgrade for Phantom power.

Support:
I paid $92 for this piece of equipment. It's affordable but not downright cheap. Still at that price, I'm not likely to waste your time. If it breaks down, I'll upgrade.

Overall:
I'll use this until I really need something else. Could be next month or next year but I will pass it on.

Feature:
It working great even with others Guitar Amp modeling effects software.It run On MY window xp pro with 3.2 GHz processor.No on/off switch on this box but not a major problem

Quality:
Very good for 99 buck, you don't need to buy all those effects for your sound.You can even download free guitar effects software to play with fun to record you music

Value:
Good investment so far with this product

Sound:
Sound very good for my guitar,Lots of effects to play with on M-Audio session software.got it for x-mas really love it easy to record multi track software but no time marker for this software

Ease of Use:
It was take me half an hour to set up.Too bad there is on out put to Guitar amps.it can only connect to Speaker amps or Headphone.doesn't not work with computer speaker very well.

Support:
web site support was OK.

Feature:
It comes with abelton live lite 6 ,and if you upgrade it to live lite 7 it is a complete power house, no novices that use garageband, or FL studio can use this. this is like a mini- protools.

Quality:
look up at sound

Value:
should of only been 70.00

Desirability:
its fat,and short but really light its ok.

Sound:
This plays good sound,and clear,and clean, although when you record your voice it only comes out of one speaker!

Ease of Use:
if you have a macbook, or any apple, its easy as heck, just plug it in.

Support:
You cant get to m-audio ever!!!! they suck on the phone, and email, so keep the manual!

Overall:
hghgh

Feature:
The software that comes with it is just demos but they work just fine!

Quality:
no problems...dont plan to bang it around...it just sits there!

Value:
great

Desirability:
I had to have it to use the plug ins and Guitar Rig without latency...of which I get 5 ms!!!

Sound:
I get clean vocals/acoustic guitar and the electric is fine as well. I use Guitar Rig and the plug ins with Cubase so that can adjust just about anything!

Ease of Use:
Worked fine the first time updated the drivers as well have redone my machine since then and it still works after a re-install. These other folks dont understand computers if they cant get this to work...take it to a tech shop!!!

Support:
dont need to use it yet...but the M-Audio website is great

Overall:
I have small condenser mics now with their own power but i would upgrade to the next model to get the phantom power for the new ribbon mic that I want to buy!

Feature:
Its very simple and does not have many features, but like others have said you get what you paid for.

Quality:
It gives off the impression of being flimsy and cheap, but its pretty durable(I wouldn't drop too many times though)

Value:
Its worth the money, but if I would have known the quality before I bought it I would have bought something a little better.

Desirability:
Its good if you want to have a little fun in the backseat(recording on the road)

Sound:
The sound is pretty good but,I don't think it is quite cd quality. If you use different software(I use Fl Studio)then I think you should be able to get a decent sound.

Ease of Use:
There is hardly anything to it. It is very easy to set up and like I said before it should produce a pretty good sound with different software.

Support:
So far I haven't needed any support

Overall:
I would recommend this product for beginners. It doesnt have the best features or sound but, it gets the job done.

Feature:
Simple yet effective but the some of the software is garbage.

Quality:
Strong and durable plastic. dropped a couple times and still works like a charm.

Value:
U get what you pay for. worth about a 100 hundred bucks.

Desirability:
Damn sexy LOL

Sound:
The is about as good as CD quality. Way better than the build-in soundcard but not as good as other more exspensive Audio Interfaces/

Ease of Use:
Install drivers, plug in and your done.

Support:
Good no problems yet..

Overall:
Good for beginners and budget minded folk/

Sound:
had this thing a while...was bummed out cuz the latency issues mostly but the sounds in the gt express package are okay and ya don't need to have expensive fx processors, amps, mics, ect. am sure there are other applications that will work with this device. to be honest i'd had this out quite some time ago, didn't like it, tried updates ect, put it back in the box, but then a friend told me he had the same unit, that the company had new drivers that made it play with almost no latency so i got it back outta the box, dl'd new drivers and am very happy with it now. there's a newer model, the pro i think that might be worth looking into for someone not owning one yet, but for me this is now gonna get used to drop guitar riffs into my computer based home recording studio. rock on!

Feature:
Software sucks and shouldn't even be included as a part of the package since it's only a demo. The box itself has guitar and line in which really don't make any sense coz you can switch in btwn the 2 with no difference. Then comes the mono and stereo part in the front, which is totally topsy turvey coz when I switch to mono, that's when I hear through both monitors but if I switch to stereo, my sound recording comes out through one speaker, wierd...no...poor workmanship on their part.

Quality:
Plastic is not attractive but you get what you pay for. As I mentioned before about having to unplug the device and plug it back in just to get it back to life after my computer goes into sleep mode when I leave it idle for a little while.

Value:
Spend a little more and get something better. My 30-day warranty is still good so I will upgrade.

Desirability:
looks like a fisher price toy but will get the job done.

Sound:
Clear sound through the mic and once you get through the buffer configuration.

Ease of Use:
Plug and play, you have to install the drivers from the website depending on what system you have. Kinda frustrating if you don't know about this but you'll get over it when you think about how much you paid. Also, when your computer goes into sleep mode and you wake it back up, the devicestops working, and I always have to unplug the USB cable and plug it back in to get to "wake up" as well. Not good.

Support:
no weekend support. We need them more on weekends when we focus on the music.

Overall:
Probably a couple of months before I replace it with something that has a broader span of functions. I'm building my home studio so I just needed something to get me started, now that I know the basics, I will upgrade.

Feature:
it comes with pretty much everything you need to use it. it even comes with somthing like 300MB of drum loops. i myself wasn't able to use the recording program that came with it, nor do i use the effects that came with it, but if you know what your doing they are probably very useful. i use Adobe Audition 1.5 with it, works very well.

Quality:
seems sturdy, knobs are firmly attached, inputs not loose or anything, made of strong plastic. looks pretty nice too.

Value:
to record on your own in a home studio setting without spending a lot of money, this is a pretty good deal. unless you have 1/4 inputs or midi on your CPU, (i dont) this is probably your best bet.

Desirability:
without this thing i would have no way to make CD's of my music. basically its the "poor man's" tool for recording music and putting out good quality CD's.

Sound:
For what i use it for, the fast track is pretty good. im sure there are much better versions of this product out there, but this is not bad for $100. it faithfully maintains the tone of my guitar. I have analog behringer recording amp i use with it and it sounds pretty good. Not perfect but pretty good.

Support:
haven't neede help

Overall:
i dont think im going to wear this out anytime soon. if i were to upgrade, I would get the 2 input version of the same product. if i broke or lost it, i would probably get another one or upgrade to the better version. the fast track finally allowed me to put my music on my CPU and make CD's, so yes it helps me meet my musical goals. what i like most is the ease of use, least, the recording software. a good buy for any aspiring musician.

Feature:
Like I said before, it's bascally a USB direct box. It would have been nice if it has phantom power but for $100, not much can be expected

Quality:
Not the greatest quality, but I haven't had any fuctionality problems with it in the couple months I've has it.

Value:
If you're just starting home recording, it gets the job done. If you're knowledgable about computer based recording, you already know that a firewire direct box is the way to go.

Desirability:
It's a direct box, nothing fancy...

Sound:
It's just a direct box really, so it sounds like whatever you put through it....The only sound issues I have is the fact that there is a significant delay in the monitoring, you cen set a faster responce but you lose significant sound quality.

Ease of Use:
Worked right out of the box. It seems some of these people have had problems with this working at all. 1. I would imagine if you have older USB ports on your motherboard, you could run into problems or 2. Make sure you set it to 16 bit sound because alot of sequencer software doesn't work in 24bit.

Support:
I wouldn't know, never had to use it.

Overall:
Most of the time you can live by this rule....Cheap recording gear isn't good and good recording gear isn't cheap.....so basically you get what you pay for.
