WOW, I didn\t expected all this. I just started this post because I think more I/O is needed for XITE. It was really nice to have many many I/O options with the old Creamware cards!!! It makes a difference in a professional enviroment, you know. On the other hand, yes, XITE and now Open Scope is the...

Well, being a practically no-latency audio system, one of the very nice uses for the old PCI cards with many inputs and outputs was to use as theater live sound. One integrated system for both main and monitors. A simple system with three LUNA + three ADAT/Zlink expansions could do that nicely and c...

That is a real shame, as in I/O counting the new system is actually much worse than the old PCI cards... As I could get up to 108 channels of I/O with the old cards.

Hi. How many XITE-1s can anyone use in parallel for more I/O?

Well, it might be just a typo in the buy section of the site, who knows. I though it was very strange anyway to cut I/Os from a well established product. I hope it's not the case anyway...

So, no more boards from SonicCore. And what should we expect now?

Well, I'm saying this because I just saw it in the "BUY" section of the site. It's there. 6DSP boards with only 12 I/Os. And no more 28 I/O boards with 6DSP. For 28 I/Os we now need to buy 14DSP boards!!!

Hi. Am I seeing "things" or is it reality? Did Sonic Core took out I/O options from the 6DSP boards??? I remember it used to come configured with one of the the three I/O options (Classic, Zlink or Plus) with up to 28 I/Os. Now, the 6 DSPs system are listed on their site having a maximum o...

Well, so I'll try it.

I'll build the system with my two type one cards and see how it goes... And yes, I do all the tweaks necessary and even some more.

Thanks one more time!

I see, so I guess two type1 cards for a 32 channel asio recording system IS A NO GO. Is it even worth to try it?

I also think sonar works MUCH better with ASIO.

Just replaced the PULSAR1 type1 card for a LUNAII card in the studio, and now the thing works rock-solid! So, in the end, it seems that in larger DSP systems, like more than 8 DSPs, type1 cards is a NO-GO! I still have to try my two type1s together and see how they go in a 8DSP all type1 system thou...

I see. So, the 15DSP cards in fact work as 14DSP card, because one of the DSPs is just for internal card prossessing, that on later 14DSp cards were done in another fashion... Got it.

wow, so they are also type2? I never understood the difference between 15DSP boards and 14DSP boards. I though the 15DSP ones were type1, like the PULSAR1... So, why is there a 15DSP and a 14DSP board? The 15DSp are older isn't it? Nowadays you only sell 14DSP... Just two of the 15DSP boards could m...

mmm... MANY ASIO channels. Never less than 48. Could that be m,y problem? I may put some subgroups on less important channels there inside Cubase for less ASIO output channels, now that you point it. Would a standalone PowerPulsar 15DSP board make things better PCI-wise? as far as I understand the 1...

No, I'm using NO masterverb the projects. Just the big STM mixer and lots of compressors and EQs. No verbs, no delays.

Hey siriusbliss, thanks for your input. Care to share your PC configurations? Most important, what Motherboard and processor are you using?

mmm... Do you think I would be able to run two pulsar1 type1 cards in a DP35DP with full DSP load withou PCI limit overflow???

Does anyone knows about such a system?

That's great. I'll get his type1 pulsar and give him one of my lunas. I have two lunas and one pulsar one. That way, I'll be with only one luna on my main system, and add another type two card soon, maybe even a professional 14dsp one. And with the two type1 cards I'll put together another system wi...

I see. That's what I was afraid of... Wel, so... getting a type2 card to my boss. I may put both type1 cards in another system for a 32 channel 8 dsp system. That would be nice... Would two type1 cards together run software version 4.0 ??? (or later, for that matter, like the new 5.0) ??? Now if tha...

ALSO, HERE IS THE BEST IDEA FOR SCOPE 5 AND XITE: I Could wait a year more, well, a year and a half... OK, even two more years, but please, don't come out with a system FULL OF DSP power and still the OLD PCI/PCIe buss overflows! That would be REALLY :( I say take the time and give us the best syste...
