I am in a similar situation...

I considered Native, but if I put it in a room that does recording, aren't we running into the massive and unusable delays of a Native or LE system for talent monitoring? Sure, I know how to setup a patch bay for Cue monitoring, but it is better for me to monitor off of the core I/O.

For a mix or edit only situation, it is a little different. If you use ADC, how much of that is taking up host processing and what is left over for doing a 5.1 mix?

I don't know anything, but my personal guess is after all of the new PT 9 native options and Hardware introduced, I suspect some kind of HD system enhancement is on the horizon. I'd be surprised if there were not. Then again, I am happy I never bought the AV Option..........
