Great Product [Posted on 2008-04-09]
I installed this on an older rebuilt machine and had no problems with it. The drivers included made it the easiest piece of hardware I've ever installed. This has great quality sound and has made me very happy.
Not Terrible [Posted on 2008-05-24]
I got this sound card during a 2-week fight with my onboard sound and an old Soundblaster Audigy card. The Audigy did not want to play nicely on an XP/AMD64 machine. While trying to get that to work, my onboard sound completely died.
I have a decent home recording studio, and although getting this card installed was easy and painless-- despite outdated documentation-- this is by no means meant for recording. Its capturing quality is bad enough that I suspect that even someone not going for professional recording quality might even be disappointed. Yes, even voice only.
Luckily I can route around it with my Zoom H4's USB interface. Sound playback on this card is on par with other cards, so overall this card is useful and serves a purpose. Also, the game/MIDI port works well, and its latency is on par with the Soundblaster's latency, so no complaints there.
I am definitely planning on eventually replacing it with something better. Decent, but not great, value.
Good Sound Card [Posted on 2008-06-19]
This card was purchased to replace an integrated sound card with poor fidelity and no Midi/Joystick port. Install was straight-forward and it worked with no problems. Sound is much better than original on-board system. Have not tried Midi yet. Not in the same class as a Soundblaster but not as expensive either. Good inexpensive upgrade.
