I am thinking of buying this card, and wonder how the drivers are. If you get good latency in Sonar. No artifacts in the sound or noise. I have a Motu Ultralite mk3 now. And the drivers are too buggy for me, dont think they will make any new soon. Is it really a upgrade sound wise?

Hi. Øivind.
From what I've read, the latency isn't great. Might be better on Mac??
The converters and preamps are very nice, though. (I know Frank at Matrix Pro Audio (who also told me)).
 
From personal experience, I would definitely go for RME (BabyFace, perhaps) 
Great drivers, low latency, extremely powerful internal mixer (TotalMix) and very good product support.
They support / make drivers for old products, 10 years old +.
All the best.

This guy tells another story. The last post. Seems it is ok on latency. But i hope i can borrow one from the local music store to test.

That was 2 1/2 years ago, so I guess it is not on Win 10..
My response was to Win 10.
If you get to try one, that would be the best.

Thanks. But if I had that money I would go for the UA USB instead.
And the audient is close soundwise. Their latest driver is from 2016 so I guess they have up to date drivers.
My Motu card is too buggy for me now. Ned something that works with great sound that has ADAT in n out. And not in the 7500 nok price range.

Just an update. I went for the UA Apollo Twin USB card. I had to use my credit card, but i think buying the best is the best in the long run.

I tried a UA Apollo Solo (FW) before I got my current AI. 
I think you are going to be very pleased

Thanks. Most important is that the drivers are stable. The Motu drivers ar almost useless now. At least for the UltraLite MK3 card. Sometimes it doesnt work, so I have to restart all. Sometimes it is crackling without over us of other apps. Then I have to restart Sonar and the sound card. And there are a scary thing that the in level on instruments dropp over use. Not like hourly, but if you set up the level and work whole day and start the next day the level might have been droppd down over night a little. So for me, I need something stable. The levels meters in the mixer have never worked under windows 10 ether.
