Beats the soundcard in the Mac Powerbook in handling strong signals... no distortion when recording synths to GarageBand.

Has optical out, but don't use it. New Powerbooks have optical ports, so useful there...

working fine for > 12 months

great for < $100

M-Audio email support is slooooow... I had a use/application question, not a problem...

Gives nice sound especially with hot signals. Have slight problems with low gain when using phantom powered mics

For free, you get 2 in 2 out simple...cheap

Driver support is horrible. Supposed to work with Pro Tools M-Powered v7, but lacks the correct drivers to be recognized. Also the fact that it does not conatin any firmware whatever, it has a hard time recognizing it already has drivers installed. Tries to reinstall old drivers every time it is pluuged in.

Its ok, sturdy enough to be dropped from small heights, plastic case doesnt scratch easily. Although some drops using the line in were noticed. Really bad driver support.

Like i said, i got it free, and for free it does what it does.

M-Audio offers almost no support for this device because they give it away in most deals, and offers only a small amount of any driver help. Digidesign doesnt offer any driver recognizing help either.

just a piece i picked up free and tried to mess with

An excellent upgrade to my laptop's sound outputs. I use it for my home stereo/MP3 collection laptop, and it sounds terrific.

Very easy to set up, and it's digital connections are very flexible. The only downside is the 1/8th inch connections for analog audio, but hey, for under $100, who cares?

High quality manufacturing. Solid.

Amazing sound for the price ($80)
