Highlights
Quality
You can't beat the quality and features for the price.

If you're worried about sound quality there's an amazing video from robot dog studios where he compared this tascam us16x08 int... Read More
I have only recorded 10 tracks at a time but i was very happy with the performance.
Price
Anyhow bottom line is this is a great interface for a good price.
Packaging/appearance
It worked right out of the box running ardour on ubuntu studio.
Competitiveness
I use this with a surface pro 4 and five at2020 microphones to record a podcast (with adobe audition).
Here's the kicker, plugged into my back-up daw win 7 32bit system.

After owning this product for two years and downloading every update including the most recent one released about a month ago writing this review in july 2020 the primary issue has not been been fixed

That is the latency will begin to drift over time no matter your buffer settings
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This means that if youre using these tascam drivers to record drums or guitar with say a 10 minute song the audio itself will actually stretch and even if you have godlike timing the recorded audio will begin to gradually drift off time and by the end could be as much as a 16th note off of what you played

Also as someone who uses a lot of vst instruments live monitoring is practically worthless as before long it sounds like the buffer settings have been maxed out

However if you use asio4all the generic asio driver for windows the issue is nonexistent
