A:Answer You will have to read the specs on this card, I do believe there is a certain version of windows and above that you must use and of course it has to be plugged into a PCi-e 2.0 slot. I use it with Sonar Professional 2015 and track music, voice and all sorts of MIDI and what not and it is amazing!!! I have yet to have a problem, it might just take some tweaking to get the initial set up of the program you are using and the sound card to talk to each other properly but once you do..... smooth sailing!!
