What I meant is that you can use the thing without a computer. It is a real digital mixer. All of its controls can be accessed from the front panel.
You can create four separate submix's with it or the software, with diferent levels set, etc........

The 828II, has alot of 'mixer' built in. It can even function as a standalone--racked digital mixer..... Can route headphone mixes to different outputs.... Only thing it is missing is decent pres...

Headphones should be just as good as monitors for showing differences between pres. Headphones excel at showing fine details. Not as good for relative levels between tracks or for mixing.

It was classless after all the cheap shots he took. But it's his playground.
I hope that the Sebatron stuff IS good. It's at a good pricepoint. I'd actually trust a review from you and Bowisc too.

All I've got to say about Kurt Foster is WOW!!! What a fool.
(Dot used to be my blowhard of reference, but he's gotten much better in the last year--almost reasonable even.)
I'd never be able to trust a word he says. He acts like an expert on subjects where he has ZERO technical expertise---...
Also: Flexibility wise, input wise, converter wise--the card is great.
However, they should have skipped the built in pres, I've never heard a dynamic mic like a 57 sound worse. Maybe they are ok Di's or work well with condensors--haven't tried them for that yet.

I've had the 828II for a couple weeks. For what it is, it's great, but here are a couple of warnings.
DIDN'T work at all with my AMD/Win 2000 system. Someone else here got it to work. Was incompatible with mine. Was time for an upgrade anyway--went all intel and XP, and it works now.
Don't...
If you've got it--use it. It works, sort of...................
If you don't have it. Stay away from it. Not such a hot sounding device. It's about as clean as a pig in a bathtub filled with mud.
Small mackie mixer or DMP3 will probably serve you better.
Plus, Acorec had the wall wart for his...
Ok, I know that I'm right, and I'm willing to just leave it at that. :eek:
But for real, I have no vested interest in this, and am just curious to see how it plays out.

That's what I'm saying.
It's great that RE had a wonderful experience. But I don't see how that guarantees, that Outlaws experience would also be wonderful. That's a ridiculous premise.
I also don't see how Outlaws handled the situation poorly either. He paid, was given a complete date--and...
