You must be joking.

If however you are being serious, the answer is no. TDM is being phased out and HDX is a completely different architecture. There will be no mixing HDX cards with Accel cards.

I laughed pretty hard when I read your post! In this case, it's very true.

Chris Bolitho@RPSE confirm
: No, HDX and Accel can't co-exist in the same system

TDM is probably 5 years past its "used by date".
It has to go, and the sooner the better. Its one of the reasons Tools has been unable to give us new features that are everyday in other DAWS.

I'm looking forward to a purely AAX future (if I can afford it).
