The only thing is, that there are some troubles with the correct Statusinformation, which are not functional limiting the card. We did not test DS mode extensively, but i can think of I tested it once MADI to MADI and it worked. > > - As a corollary: should I keep the compatibility with the old code?

BTW: Also I never finished to make a memory map interface for the mixer and meters, since it needs 16384 Bytes Mixer and the same for meters of values to copy, which is more ctl-interface can transfer at one time. Should we work on that, or everybody uses individual access to fader and meters for the software ? mfg winfried -- -- - ao.Univ.Prof. DI Winfried Ritsch - ritsch@xxxxxx - http://iem.at/ritsch - Institut fuer Elektronische Musik und Akustik - University of Music and Dramatic Art Graz - Tel. ++43-316-389-3510 (3170) Fax ++43-316-389-3171 - PGP-ID 69617A69 (see keyserver http://wwwkeys.eu.gpg.net/) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
