Been on the production bible and there's only one opinion on this so need a few more

anyone got this? what do you think of it?
I am mainly going to be using it for producing, plugging in my into it and linking it to my stereo system. Thanks

Yeah haha. Cheers bro... well I have a couple of questions:
Do you think it's worth the 200 odd quid? have you experianced any problems? and do you use it with Vista?
cheers mate

Got one here I use for gigs (not that I have time for gigs any more

). I like it.
Sound is not too bad - for the price it's
excellent... remember I am a snob
Headphone out is very passable/decent. Connectivity is just what you need with pretty much all bases covered, with good quality. And I can confirm from first hand experience that it survives airports, aeroplanes, muddy fields in Lithuania, drunk Irish people, and the occasional accidental hard drumstick smack. The knob/buttons are more solid than you think. It has literally never let me down at a gig, and that's priceless.
For the money, I don't think there's too much competition really. AND (!!) it is bus powered.
FWIW I have just set it up to run from my net laptop directly into my mastering convertors so all I need to do is press a button and I can audition stuff from here/myspace/AIM etc though the mastering setup. So if I have time, I'll be able to checka bit more stuff out and hopefully help out a bit more round here.
Anyway, it's good.
Edit: running XP here, not Pissta.

if i got one can i sell the free Massive, FM8, Absynth or Pro-53 because i just got Komplete so don't need them. if you aint got Massive or Absynth i would buy this card just to get one of them.

I've got one, no complaints here. The sound quality is good for the price. Plus, you can use it to control Traktor if you're so inclined
