Darby is very similar to the ASV, in fact, the English translators from which the ASV was derived referred to it. Darby used a critical text, not the TR.
I have it and like it well enough, but I always want to double check against the original Greek or Hebrew.
Also, the Bretheren I knew used AV, NIV, NKJV, and a few used the Darby. It was not a big deal among them.
