Well, I'm OK to get it from you.
Sorry, I ain't e-bay member
PM me so we can see what we can do about it.

Hi.
Is the ADAT expansion still for sale?
Does it works together with the z-link on the Luna or is it the z-link+ADAT i/o's without the one on the Luna?
Can it be used with other boards (Pulsar II, PowerPulsar?)

Err, I think you didn't understood... it has a little extended
It's 48*96kHz in and 32*96kHz channels out:
1 * Apogee AD16
2 * Creamware A16 Audiobahn 2

There are :
1 PowerPulsar + 15 dsp
2 Pulsar II 6 dsp
=> 6 ADAT i/o... 48 channels in 48kHz => 24 channels in 96kHz

and just around to put in ...

Yeah, but how do you configurate it all at once?

In a few weeks I'm going i7 quad or more cores w. 3 PCI, Scope 5.1
1 * PowerPulsar
2* Pulsar II
in a rack enclosure
So there are 6 ADAT i/o
if the lightbridge can really run with it, this would be perfect and well, if a 2nd lightbridge could run ...

So you do not use it to i.e input some audio channels inside scope?
My problem has even extended since I posted :
Now there are two Audiobahns and the Apogee AD16.
It looks like I'll have to sync several computers anyway as I can't find some i/o extension plates, especially as I want to run in 96kHz

This is a Luna II.
The fact is there are 3 Scope 5.1 updates :
the cheapest for 3DSP, then the 6DSP, then the 14/15 DSP which is the most expensive.
So if you've got the 3DSP as 1st system board, you pay the cheapest update, even if you have 2 ScopePros as slaves... If your smallest is the 6 DSP or ...

Well, I've just been MP'd a few minutes ago about a 3ADAT daughter board, so it looks that things are going the right way.
Nice to see that a sync plate won't be mandatory for running both my converters racks.
I think I'd keep the Luna in the system as Scope 5.1 for a 3 DSP board is much cheaper and ...

I really can't tell now what I'll decide to do
between have a single PC with 32*96kHz ins (and 16 outs) then selling non used boards
or building a 2nd one with 'only' 16 i/o's that could drive a B-studio/reharsing room and if ever 48 ins are needed, it would help a lot the main PC.
In fact, it all ...

Well, I can't tell now for sure, but maybe I'll sell a Pulsar II SRB very soon : I'm waiting for a PulsarII as I need more i/o's

You said you did your own breakout box.
Are there ways to transform a Pulsar II or PowerPulsar the DIY way to put 3 ADAT I/Os (or maybe 2 z-links) on each instead having ...

Well, so I'll have to find some extension board as with a PowerPulsar, a Pulsar II and a LunaII, I won't be able to put more than 24 tracks @96kHz at once, so it'll need at least 2 ADAT ins or 1 z-link.
I know of 3 ADAT i/o plates, but are there some with z-link too?
BTW, would the sync using ...

Well, my problem is not to get a z-link in the system as there-s already one thru a Luna II.
But, by having a 3 boards system, I'm limited to having
1 z-link and 4 ADAT ins or 6 ADAT ins...

without some extension plate, will it be the 3*ADAT or some with Z-link, I can't go over 24 tracks at once ...

Hi.
Have you still got the z link i-o plate?
I'm stuck for inputing 32 channels of 96kHz in my system
(got an A16 and an Apogee AD16)

Well, I've got a Scope Pro (since this morning), a Pulsar II SRB, a Luna and an A16 II
And in other hand, just bought an Apogee AD16 and an M-Audio lightbridgewhich communicates with the PC thru a firewire interface which will use the PCI-e port.
(got to build a racked PC as the long board can't be ...

Could it be possible to just buy the z-link plate? (as I have an A16)

noted for Asus. Not a cool thing : they used to built some of the best mobos in the old days :-?
good to know MSI improved : I had VERY bad issues in the past with 'em.
I think I'll stick to Gigabyte : I had never to complain with their stuff and it seem several ppl here are happy with the actual ...

So no i7 6cores as it requires 2100 chipset... (I red somewhere that 2100 caused problems).
Well, at least good to know that there are still 3 PCI boards, especially @ Gigabyte : I've always found it much easier to oveclock w. their stuff than w. any other brand, even Asus...
Personnally I'd avoid ...

Sorry, but my old 1820(s : got two) runs without (major) problem with win7 64 bits (and probably win8) as drivers have been issued! The only thing : avoid running (too much) USB external drives or sometimes, when you access 'em, it makes an horrible buzz for a few seconds :lol:

dont know if the ...

BTW.
As I ain't mounted a computer for years as my Q6600 has been overclocked to 3.4GHz (!), I'm a little puzzled seeing all the actual stuff... And I just got a Antec rack-PC box yesterday which would do the tric for a DAW...
Are there actual Gigabyte or ASUS mobos that can take an i7 AND have kept ...

You gave a price and I said ok I'll buy one card. Then you raised the price.
We are too busy for nonsense. You have 3 people I know of who want the cards, yet you haven't sold them.
Well, basicly 4 ppl as I'm in too... But if it's to see a price rise everytime I'm in touch, well, I feel I'm not ...

I can't tell for the Casio, never handled one, that's why I wrote "maybe" as reviews are mixed...
(But yeaaah, it looks great).
Most of those specialized controllers are a bit odd, i.e only g-strings on the SynthAxe. The Yamaha looks like the only serious thing you can hope to get for cheap, fully ...
