All you have to do is run the mix farm as your primary interface card. The D24 acts as a core, but in a higher numbered PCI slot. It works very well, I have this setup myself. 64 tracks, and all the benefits of 5.1
Cheers &
Good luck [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Default Re: Using mix farm with d24 core

almost in the same boat.... the dealer asked me to trade my DSP Farm for a mix card. the mix card might act as the master on this ? I would keep my d24 (master of the PT24 system).

I want 64 tracks, 32 I/O, more TDM plugins, capacity of opening dsphungry plug-ins as well,

Default Re: Using mix farm with d24 core

Just to chime in with a question as a D24 owner who wants to add a mixfarm;
-When you assign plugins and DAE creates the mixer, does it start on the mixfarm, as this now is your first card?
This could be annoying since you might have enough power to run a number of plugins on your regular farms and would want tokeep the Mixfarm free for the really good stuff (Virus, Rev one etc.)
I have 3 interfaces so I could see 2 dsps already taken up by creating input channels.
Is there any way to juggle the plugins so you can keep the regular 'lo-fat' ones on the normal dsps?

Cheers,

Joe

i heard about a rumour that you can run a mixfarm on its own ??? install it with the core card , remove the core card and thats it .
the infos not from me ( the guy told me he tried it and it works , but ... ??? a lot of people & too much talkin ) , if you have a mixsetup , try it and let us know ...
i dont believe it ... but MAYBE ... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]
