has anyone tried to use this product with windows 8? Other than the obvious problems (I have actually mastered the original 4 channel unit).

no......I have only tried to use this with Windows 7 and it's not the easiest, user friendly software to work with!

It works great with my system Windows 8.1. You would have to try it with a different system. I would see if YouTube has a person that might have used it on a different system. Works fantastic with Windows 8.1.

I'm using it with Windows 8. Haven't used it much, but has worked fine so far.

I have not had a problem with using it with Windows 8. In fact, I bought it after getting a computer with 8 on it. I love it.

I use media center to interface with the direct TV receiver. If that is still a part of Win 8, it should work just the same.

It works just fine with both Win 7 and Win 8.1... I will say that under either OS, if I leave the interface up, eventually the USB drops the connection with the PC and I have to power cycle the unit or unplug and plug back in the USB cable. There may be newer drivers which address this or it maybe configurations I can modify on my PC. But to your question, "how well does it work," I get smooth streaming sound when I'm working with it ... did you have specific requirements in mind?

I am using it with Windows 7 with no problem but the instructions do not mention Windows 8 compatability. Startech.com should be able to help you. Colin

Nope. I haven't gotten it to work on windows 8. I probably downloaded over 5 drivers still didn't work. Only windows 7 I saw it work on.

I've had no problems with Windows 8. You have to plug it into the usb port and install the drivers from the disk

I have it working on Windows 7. It works great, but I have never tried it on Windows 8

I had to send mine back to presonus so they could make it work with Windows 8. It was not a pleasant experience.

I got it to work with windows 8.1. I ended up returning it b/c it stopped working after the 1st time i used it.

Are you using the CD that came with it? I'm running windows 8.1 pro x64, and when I installed the software on the CD, it worked perfectly. You might have a defective product.

Hi. I had the same problem. A solution is posted here. Note that although windows 7 is used in the example it works in windows 8 as well. The solution works fabulously.

I use it on win 7 x64 , so I don't see any issue with windows 8, other than RT... which definitely will not run it(by design).

I have no issues with windows 8. Just download the drivers from the manufacturers website. I think it is a beta driver.
