2 soundcards with PT m-powered
I just read in another post that someone was able to use two Delta 1010LT's with PT m-powered.
However, on the PT m-powered compatibility site it says: "Simultaneous use of multiple M-Audio peripherals is not supported." Has anyone tried and been able to use two Delta 1010's? |

Re: 2 soundcards with PT m-powered
At best what I know is that the original Mpowered 6.9 demo did
allow the use of multiple Delta interfaces,but it only worked at 16 bit. It was actually discussed here to a frequent and large extent. Then digi took out that functionality altogether for the shipping version as they deemed it making Pro Tools too unstable,not to mention that they would'nt want it to outperform LE systems. There is now a demo of MP 7.0 that is fully functioning for 30 days but I have not installed it,as I already have the free upgrade full 7.0 version that works with the original 6.8 ilok auhtorization. I very well suspect that some people are just using the demo version which is actually quite lame. At $299, I'd say PT MP is actually quite a deal. And they are sacrificing performance and quality in their own work and probably don't take themselves serious enough to be able to cough up the money and actually buy the product... Even if it works 'unoffically' in the boxed retail verion, I doubt it would be as stable. But hey, this is just my opinion.

Re: 2 soundcards with PT m-powered
I have two M-Audio Delta 1010s and was experiencing clicks when I had both of them enabled on my system. When I disabled either of the cards, the random clicks stopped.
I'm using Pro Tools M-Powered 7.0cs3. The software seems to recognize both cards, but my guess is Digidesign didn't test this configuration or they would have discovered the sync/clock issue that is probably causing the clicks I'm hearing. I haven't tried using an external clock though. Gene http://www.topsoundproductions.com Convert BR-1600CD/BR-1200CD projects to WAV faster! Use WAV-MAKER- 1600! |

recognize either of the cards .. we disabled one of the cards in the device manager hardware profile .. re-booted . and then it worked. upon consulting with tech support, they confirmed that multiple sound cards would not work. so, we dumped the 1010s and got an FW1814 and an optical ADAT pre for 16 channels .. and this has been working flawlessly. i'm surprised that anyone has gotten a multi-card configuration to work, because from what was intimated to us .. they actively defeated multi-card configurations so as to not canibalize their other offerings. jeff |

Re: 2 soundcards with PT m-powered
I hold a delta 1010lt and I received a very good offer to buy another one, but this mean that if I have to record 16 inputs I have to use another software, Can I hope in a miracle from digi?

cause I did not believe him. and I really don't believe that it's working for him as well as he's saying it is. I even suspected maybe the screenshots were photo shopped...but... anyway check the thread out and reply and ask him how he's doing it. I would'nt bother wasting your time or money getting two 1010lt's to work in Pro Tools.

Re: 2 soundcards with PT m-powered
I've bought it, and with my surprise PT M-powered 7.1 has seen my two delta 1010lt, in input I have only the 10 in of one delta, but now I have got 16+4 outputs

Re: 2 soundcards with PT m-powered
I made the post saying I'm using 2 1010lt's with PTMP 7.1 and guess what - it's still working flawlessly. And no, the pictures I posted are legit - not edited. While I realize that this is not supported and probably not the norm, it works for me and obviously is possible on some systems - I may have gotten lucky. I'm able to record 16 tracks at once and I run at 128 latency. Here again are some UNEDITED screenshots I took:
