So just a few cables to link it up, Thunderbolt from computer to Magma, then standard link cables from HDX cards to I/O. Great sound and they did a live recording to demo the ability to work in real time with low low latency.

The PT Expert guys were there so the video should show soon.

So not quite 1 box but nearly

Still waiting for the new MacPro at the end of the year which will hopefully be a one box solution (not including a Magna box).

How that?

And BAM! New Mac Pros with NO slots, 6 Thunderbolt 2 ports. I hope AVID is ready to drop a single box interface with AAX, Hard drive bays, and 4k Video out!

I think the new Mac Pro will work great WHEN the optical TB cables are out.

Studio with monitor and Keyboard to Machine room with Mac/TB PCIE Box.

Going to be great - Going to be expensive.

Looks like the new Mac Pro will need more... Thunderbolt PCIe solution will be needed

Yep. This will be the solution. They were supposed to release them Q1 BUT now have to wait for FCC approval.

Also, we need a multiple video stream delay compensation system. My desktop video, client video, booth video, and projector video all need a built in SynchCheck box and individual alignment delays. It would be incredible if each TB port and the HDMI port could be individually time shifted for video!
