http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-O1V-24-Channel-Mixer-W-MY8-AT-ADAT-Card-and-Rack-Mount-Ears-/281650652109?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4193afe3cd

i would love to have a adat digital mixer to go with my ADAT interfaces
i have the following:
digi 001, rme 96/8, motu 2408mk2+pcix424 card

imagine having a sonorus + yamaha 01v back in 1998.. on the cutting edge of technology;)
even before the 2408 or digi 001 was released

according to my page i made: http://www.oldschooldaw.com/forums/index.php?topic=360.0
the sonorus card goes back as far as 1996! i think this might be wrong tho as it wasnt written up in sos till http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/sep98/articles/sonorus.html sept 1998..
the frontier wavecener + korg 1212 cards came first before the sonorus according to sos

I am interested in EXSP24-kontakt-halion with this card and a Edirol UM-1EX on a Dual 866 MDD. Logic 6 would be my natural choice, but I am intrigued by the strength of same setup with Cubase/DigitalPerformer

Also wondering if there is a Audio-only DSP realtime solution to use the sonorus as a ADAT multieffect.

It seems to offer various drivers to work

i dont think the sonorus card works in mac os x does it have an X driver?
i thought it was 8/9 only

my idea for this card was to use two cards.. one in each g4 and one to make sounds.. and the other to record...
synced via MTC.. using the mac os 9 allstar apps cubase 5 VST / Logic 5 as my recording apps..
and possibly Ableton live 4 or Digital Performer as my sound producing apps..
with just 2 ADAT optical cable.. 16 tracks!! its really amazing..

i already have a few interfaces with ADAT like my RME + my DIGI001 but each have only 1 adat (8channel)
the motu2408 is my only interface with 2 x ADAT ... maybe that would be a great combo..
motu 2408 on digital performer ---> feeding into Sonorus running Cubase or Logic

Sonorus is OS8/9 only on macs. There were no OSX drivers AFAIK.    But the card is supported on BeOS and Linux. Windows have drivers for NT so I guess XP should work too. I will have to research some more.

The STUDI/O card is really complex. I have not put it on working state still. The system recognizes it to work. Logic (or any ASIO DAW) recognizes it. But you have to choose the working mode before. I have synced the card to both adat ins, but havent take a sound out of it still.

Logic allow you to use it beside a ASIO interface, but used in that way you can't use VST plugs on it, only Logics ones. As when it is used the 001 as DirectIO instead of the ASIO drivers for Cubase you pointed out some months ago.

I only tried to use it as digital only. Still hasn't tested the analog outs. I am busy with some mixes at these times to make more tests.

what are u trying to connect the sonorus to?

Sonorus ADAT out ---> Digi 001 ADAT in?

[Protools5LEGuy]

what are u trying to connect the sonorus to?

Sonorus ADAT out ---> Digi 001 ADAT in?

Sonorus ADAT out 1 ---> Focusrite LS 56 ADAT in 1

Focusrite LS 56 ADAT out 1 to sonorus adat in 1

Sonorus can sync to in A or in B or internal. I have tested the 3

Also tried as if ADAT would be SPDIF

[supernova777]

they are probably both trying to be the clock

[supernova777]

well are u going to fix it so i can get some feedback before i buy???
