[Mr. Anxiety]

Thanks Everyone.
To clarify: I want to add my hardware ( 2 x Neve modules) and (2 x Distressor) as well as (4 x API 550a modules) to a DSub patch bay, which I would connect to my 192 card. I will also have my (8) hardware synth outputs on the bay.

By adding an expansion input card (Analog), I can have a total of (16) inputs going to PT, as well as the (8) outputs existing in 192 already. This brings my total in/out arrangement to 24,correct?

The negative to this is that I need the outs to bring the analog hardware gear back into PT, so my monitoring scheme is affected. I will then need to monitor my Stereo mix from PT via digital outputs into my monitor controller. Or leave a pair of analog outputs available to run to the monitor controller (from the patch bay).

Just looking to see that my logic is correct before I move forward. If anyone had a better way to integrate my hardware processors, I'd love to hear it!

Thanks Again,

Mr. A.
