Thanks for that Lee! Thanks. Will leave out "HWMIX" from the ICE1712/1724 card tags. >>> The DMX6fire has both optical and phono SPDIF connectors >> Both both input and output? > > Yes. The two inputs can be switch selected; the outputs are in parallel. Thanks again, just added "RCAio" to the 6Fire. >> I've for example added "ANALOGio" to every single card on the TerraTec page >> which felt a bit silly. > > Actually as I understand it, the EWS88D is essentially digital (ADAT etc) only > though it seems to have a secondary low-grade audio out for system sounds > etc. You're right, just checked the manual. I see the driver creating a 8/16-bit 8-48 kHz "ICE1712 consumer" PCM that I suppose will be the one that ends up at that backplate analog out. The "low-grade" will be fairly relative so I'll leave in the ANALOGio tag for the ES88D as well. If someone reading this knows better, please yell...
