Here's another issue to keep an eye on:
2 soundcards with PT m-powered
Apparently there's been success running PT M-P with two Delta 1010LT's. Wonder how it would work with 3 Firewire 1814's
I'm definitely hanging onto my versions of PT M-P and the M-Audio drivers as they become updated, chances are Digi will fix the loophole. Who would buy an HD system when you could have 24x12 analog i/o with 24/192 converters on a quadzilla pushing 400+ D-Verbs for thousands less?
