This is interesting. Anyone have experience with one of these?

a couple of guys over at the sydec site have used them with success, but like Mark i cant speak German (was hoping somebody would translate;))

Don't forget you will be splitting the bandwidth and the IRQ for the slot between the cards. Not a good idea for low latency or massive numbers of tracks.

So would you envision problems with 24-IO using an RME hdsp 9652 only?
My fanatasy for small venue live, (amongst many), is to do this with a laptop and a firewire raid-7200 rpm-level 0, with a TI FW chipset. A setup like this should be stable to track 20-24 tracks, no?
Add to that SAC and I feed the house PA what it should have, instead of what the bartender wants!;)

Or how about two?

Anything else?

My 4 uad-1 card in pci magma works flawlessly!
If it can performs like magma does, it will be a good cost effective choice..

I was really hoping someone had some experience with some of Magma's cheaper competitors.
Anyone, anything?
