Feature:
More u use more flexible u get

Quality:
I think there is nothing better than this at this price range. I dont know any other brand that i can rely on like this. Prism Sound made an interface but it is far more expensive...

Value:
Best value ever. Card is very well made and rme keeps updating the drivers which makes it better and better...

Desirability:
i can have one more but i think those firewire things are very attractive.

Sound:
I used to use emu 1212m. I used a tc electronic m300 as a converter connected to its spdif outputs. Sounded softer than the emu's own AD converters. When i switched to RME 9652 it sounded even better and sweeter straight away. There was much definition and stability. Then i bought a RME ADI-2 AD-DA Converter. I am using the sound card with that. I cannot be happier than this. Quality sound indeed.

Ease of Use:
Very cleverly thought out

Support:
i didnt have to deal with it...

Overall:
I wish it had a pair of analog inputs and outputs. However there are optional cards for this but they are used at the expense of a pair of adat's

Feature:
52 channels, nice software mixer capable of anything. The only bad thing is lack of analogue I/O. You will need to use a AD/DA converter if you want analogue I/O. You get 2 MIDI I/O as well.

Quality:
Never had any problems. Very well built.

Value:
You won't find a sound card with this much features and quality in this price range.

Desirability:
I own it.

Sound:
Absolutely the best PCI sound card out there...

Support:
Contacted RME once... They replied fast and were very friendly and helpfull.

Overall:
Quality all over...
