asio issue: scope card + yamaha motif es via firewire

evdb · Post by **evdb** » Mon Jul 03, 2006 3:39 am

when i connect a Yamaha ES synth via firewire (mLan option), i create a second asio driver. does anyone know if two asiodrivers (i.e. scope card + yamaha) can work together in cubase SX?

cheers

isn't that in vst connections ?If you have a fw 1884 it probably does the same thing.I hope so, I'm buying one.Any others who could answer this ?

i'm really interested in two options:
1 - connecting the motif es together with the scope card with cubase SX
2 - this seems to me a more logical option: connecting the motif es together with cubase sx to the scope card (i.e. to a scope mixer)

well, when Asio was designed CPUs were much slower and (quality) 'soundcard hardware' was expensive - hence the single client approach made sense.
I dunno, but it could have been the time of Win 3.11, if anyone remembers...

If you want more than the Motif's 6 single-outs (i.e. mLan 16 channels), then you'd need a box to do the conversion from mLan to Adat.
I'm not shure if the Yamaha i88X works, but here's a <a href=http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/i88X/>link</a> with a sellout price
