Scope + A16 ultra 16in + 16out simultaneously?

Hi, I'm considering buying a second hand Scope card and will want to get the A16 Ultra to use in conjuntion with it as a digital mixer.

Is it possible to use the 16 inputs and outputs simultaneously. ie, can I bring in 16 channels of audio, apply effects in realtime and output the 16 resulting channels live.

It suggests on the Creamware site that each adat connection provides 8 channels of audio. Im guessing this is one way? In which case, 2 adat connections gives 16 channels in OR out, but not both ways simultaneously.

So I thought maybe the ZLink card could provide enough but that only has 2 zlink + 1 adat, still only 16 in + 8 out.

Anyone managed such a configuration?

thanks, Tom

Sure, I have that in my setup

I use a Mackie 1604vlz pro mixer and have 16 send-returns going to the a16. then inside the pulsar/scope window you can do whatever you want.. routing wise. I ususaly just record or process or just connect the ins to the outs so I can just play around with my hardware synths. Anyhow, yes it is possible.
good luck
