Re: Using multiple interfaces in ProTools - even identical interfaces possible?

As far as I can tell (I hope I'm wrong), the 1820 does NOT offer a stand-alone mode, i.e. it canNOT be used as an ADAT slave expander to another 1820.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

+1. I'm using air cooling on my 11th gen i9, with dual 120mm low db fans. For Pro Tools, I'm clocking all cores at a constant 5.1Ghz.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Does that MB have Thunderbolt 4/USB 4? For that CPU/RAM build, you can skip the GPU (!) & spend that money on a bigger 4Tb internal NVMe drive and partition it.

Re: Should I upgrade? I need more than 6x BTD

Intel 19-14900K is the fastest right now. According to this link, you'd get a substantial speed bump: https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i9-7900X-vs-Intel-Core-i9-14900K/3936vs4151

Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here

I'm using a Presonus 2626 8-ch interface via Thunderbolt on Windows 11 at buffer 64. Rock solid & great drivers from Presonus. Easy, simple. The 2626 has 2 available ADAT expansion...
