2.0 out of 5 stars BEWARE - good for playback only., 15 May 2006
By Mr. A. Akhtar "kissthedevil" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Please pay attention to the auidophile review below. It is accurate. I speant 6 hours trying to get this to sync with Ableton 5 Live and the recording is just terrible! Glitches, drop outs, pops - it's better if I record direct in to my lap top! Saying that though - if you just want to listen to your itunes or want to make your speakers sound better - then this is for you. Only install the first bit of software though. The amount of times my computer hung , crashed and froze is outrageous!

3.0 out of 5 stars Creative Sounblaster live! 24 bit External, 13 May 2006
I bought this unit to records vynyl albums through my laptop.
On connecting to the laptop the sound crackled and popped until the soundblaster cut out. On connecting the soundblaster through a seperate usb hub to the laptop all now seems fine. Didn't find the manual any help with this problem, just my own trial and error, although Creative's customer site is very useful.
Once you get it set up for recording then it works fine, but you will need better software for cleaning up the music and tagging the tracks.
Overall a good unit but let down by not working quite as it should and documentation.
