    ee got me new PCIe to PCI converter today in Melbs and it’s being brought down on Sat. For an old but exxy soundcard for the studio.

    Better fuckin’ work (interwebbles says yes so we’re hoping). Have to re-do an entire DAW (OS and plugs) which I’m not looking forward to (it takes forever). Been about six months since making choons and keen to jump back in over the break.

    Nevertheless surprised an obscure part like that only took 2 days to arrive this close to xmas.

        Those are are mostly outsourced. Do not expect anything beyond a fling in your general direction and a notice you signed something you didn’t.

        Tullamarine is running sixty thousand daily and that’s light.

            Heh yeah well old. Seriously stable card / drivers though. Also feel naked w/o Digicheck (specifically the spectrum analyser) so I’m determined to try and resuscitate it lol.

              So are you plugging a pre into the spdif input? Always wondered how these cards worked

                I’ve never actually used the spdif (or ADAT). pretty much only use this pre. Colour comes from plugins.

                It’s a very simple setup all mainly ITB heh.

                In terms of how it works it’s like any other sound card it’s just no new MBs have legacy PCI.
