So you can only buy them in complete packages?

I don't know this for sure, but from my recent investigation into the product line, it looks like the hardware is modular.

The Pulsar XTC is a DSP only board, but supports the I/O daughter boards that enable it to do external I/O. I'm almost sure that these same I/O daughter boards are used on all the boards too.

In other words, I think a Pulsar II is the same as the Pulsar XTC, but packaged with an I/O daughter board. According to this theory, you should just need to purchase the "Plus" I/O expansion board for the XTC to replace your current I/O daughter board.

This assumes Creamware hasn't changed their hardware since you bought your board.

You should, of course, contact Creamware or an authorized retailer to confirm this. You might try http://www.jrrshop.com. They were helpful when I recently ordered a board from them.

Cheers,
Bill

All I/O boards can be placed on any Creamware card, except the Luna II (which has it's own I/O's).

The only problem is that the I/O boards aren't available seperately.

What about XTC owners who wish to add external I/O? Creamware's literature suggests that I/O boards are sold separately just for this case, if for no other.

While the I/O plates are modular, I've been led to believe that some aren't compatible with older cards. I haven't seen I/O boards separately in our Creamware catalogs for a long time but that doesn't necessarily mean it wouldn't be possible to get one straight from Germany, want me to find out?

Thanks for the referral, Bill!

I'd wish to buy an I/O board only, does anyone know where I can buy this?

Thanks for the reply.
I couldn't find Creamware I/O boards on their site though. I've asked them via email.

today I got the new Music Store buying guide, and I couldn't find any Creamware (Audio) presentation!
That's a bad thing

Anyway, they'll order you that card even it's not a shelve product
