Unless I'm looking at the wrong MB, this one has 3x PCIe slots, not PCIx slots. And the most important thing when it comes to these PCIx slots is that they are "all in a row" so that can be connected with that little Digidesign ribbon cable.

Are you talking a Hackintosh build with an Apple M chip? Or are you saying the M processor is fast and can be used with LIVE performance to use plugins with low latency? One has nothing to do with the other or am I missing something here? I don't or certainly wouldn't be recording a band with plugins. And I'm not using an X32 as my recording console although, yes, I guess you could do that and use USB to record 32 inputs.) Recording in a purist sense of microphone choice & preamp choice to the audio interface which are Avid 192s. That could be 24 to 32 inputs with 4 headphone mixes. All at a buffer of 64. Then you start overdubs. Finally you start mixing and you have to change the buffer size. No big thing really, you just make it larger. Then you want to overdub again and you've forgotten to change the buffer back to 64, so you stop and do that. Again no big deal other than time. TIME and impatient musicians who are losing their creative juju or vibe. I'm trying to see if there is a faster Intel CPU with a MB that can do this all natively with the Avid HDNative card and not having to drop the buffer size down to 64 to record. Possibly finding a happy medium. Anyone out there find one?

But what comes to running PCI-X dsp cards with newer motherboards I am pretty sure this will not be possible as PT10HD was 32 bit software that also needed the old 32 bit OS and the PCI-X slots were needed to be "native" PCI-X meaninig they were integrated to the system some other way than PCI-X slots work on modern motherboards, even if found available. |
