The only problem is the loading time. If you are using your own samples to make instruments and send them to Qs Cards you need 70-80 min (1 hour and 10-20 min) for 8MB with Midi in/out and 35-40 min with serial cable. Of course if your samples are only 1MB you need 4,5 min to load them with Midi in/out.
If you are using your cards only for Midi files and banks or patches the saving time is not big.
But it is absolutely unacceptable from Alesis that almost 3 years now since Windows 2000 came out they didn't make a serial driver for NT OS. I can't believe that a company with a best seller like QS synths didn't try to help their customers although people ask for this 2 years now.
