(More customer reviews)I purchased the Lexicon Lambda in December of 2009, mainly because I wanted an audio interface that would allow me to connect my MIDI keyboard (Alesis QS8), L-R audio out from the keyboard and two XLR mics to my PC, one of which requires phantom power (AKG C2000B). I have since purchased a hardware compressor / limiter (Behringer MDX4600) and am now using the handy "insert" busses in order to make use of the compressor.
In the few weeks that I have been using the Lambda, it has proven to be a powerful workhorse in my home studio. The device is sturdy, the sound is clean and the features are exactly what I need for producing professional quality media on a home studio budget. I am very satisfied with my choice in this product and how well it works with the equipment in my studio and the software that I use (Sony SoundForge 10, Sony Vegas Pro 9, Sony Acid 7).
The only problem that I have had is that the unit may infrequently "lock-up" or go silent, but that is remedied by briefly unplugging and reconnecting the USB cable from the back of the unit... and this may be the fault of the software that I use, the PC or the static electricity that can cause an audible "click" when I touch the keyboard or mic stand. Either way, these problems have been extremely minor and should not deter you from considering this product.
For what it's worth, I'm using the Lexicon Lambda on a PC running Windows 7 Ultimate, a 3.4Ghz Pentium Extreme CPU and 4GB of RAM. I had originally planned to buy the similar product by TASCAM, but was advised that many people have experienced compatibility issues with that unit. Thus, I went with the Lambda.
Highly recommended!
