It doesn't make sense to me.
You could get a Focusrite Red 16Line for half the price and get better latency, a great computer interface and excellent sound. You'd have Dante, Thunderbolt 3, Digilink (should you ever need it) and ADAT/SPDIF onboard too.
If you really want the MTRX Studio then I would get HD Native or a HDX card.
If you don't want to do that then get the Focusrite card- it will be more reliable.
DVS is, IMHO, best only used in emergencies.
I stopped using DVS even for Mac computer sound passthrough a long time ago.
The main issue you will have it DVS cannot chase a sample rate change.
Plus terrible latency.
Plus it is using your computer's processing power to pass audio- that slows down your computer (a bit), fewer plugins etc.
My strong recommendation is to find a solution that does NOT rely on DVS.

I do agree with you on some points. The Res 16line would make financial sense, but I want to keep everything within the eucon ecosystem. I can sell my SPL surround monitor and a get a good return on it back and just use the monitoring section on avid control app.
I also like the scalability of the mtrx studio as well. I’ve been working on quite a few Atmos projects lately, so that is worth considering.
The HDX card is a couple hundred dollars cheaper than the focusrite card, but I want all my connectivity in my studio to be AoIP. Would it just make sense for me to just go with the Avid cards instead?
