OSX Aggregate device with 192 I/O

[TheHopiWay]

Is there a way to include the 192 I/o in an aggregate device configuration under core audio?

It doesn't show as an option in the audio/midi set up in OSX.

Hi,

Have you got the Digi coreaudio driver installed?

Its usually installed with PT, but you don't mention what version of PT and Mac OSX you are using?

Thanks for responding.
I'm running A ppc G5 dual 2.3 w/PCI slots, PTHD2 7.3 cs1 on OS 10.4.9.

Yes, the core audio driver is installed and the 8 analog I/O show up under the OS as an option for input and playback in the audio/midi setup utility but do not add as an aggregate device option.

I have some none PT projects I need to tweak for a client that aren't fully DAE compatible and was hoping to build an aggregate device using the adat lightpipes off a motu interface (2408 mkIII) and the 8 convertors on the 192 all running under MAS instead of DAE.

If it doesn't work I can either;
1-Move all the files to PTHD and start his work over from scratch under DAE.
2- Use DP up under DAE, though the lack of rtas on aux channels under Motu's partial DAE coding is a problem.
3- Do the whole thing off the Motu 2408 under MAS and (shudder) use the 2408's convertors for some overdubs.

I'm just looking for the best option....

Your best option, IMO

In a word - no. You should probably look at your other options for a solution on this one...

Ok. Thanks, I'll quit chasing my tail.

Guess I'll give him two choices and hope he chooses the HD solution.
For some reason I end up working with a lot of Motu DP folks. I actually like the motu software, it's just that they can't seem to get the DAE full service so it's a PITA to mix in.
