Hi :)
all 18 outputs, including SPDIF, playback_9 and playback_10 work at the
same time. Outputs 7 and 8, playback_7 and playback_8 are the same as
phones out and playback_1 and playback_2 are the same as main out.
Playback_1 to playback_8 are analog out and the other are ADAT out. IOW
the PreSonus provides 18 individual outputs. 64 Frames/Period works,
too, but 128 Periods/Frames is absolutely stable, when using the mouse,
open apps etc., there is just one exception, using the USB mouse wheel
in roxterm does cause xruns, anywhere else the USB mouse wheel doesn't
cause issues. I can't say much about the sound quality, since the mixer
isn't already good when not broken, but actually it's broken. I suspect
the outputs aren't the best, but most likely usable. I'll do more tests,
but until now I like the PreSonus. One issue are click noises when
starting the computer or starting Qtractor, while no xruns happen. They
seem to be louder than with other sound cards, resp. usually no click
should be audible at all, when just starting Qtractor, however,
launching e.g. Evolution and Claws doesn't cause issues, when Qtractor
is running, still with 16 * Fluidsynth DSSI and 2 * Hexter DSSI. Note,
I'll do stereo mixing anyway with my RME HDSPe AIO, but since the Linux
driver is crap and I want to connect my iPad by ADAT with my Linux
PC, I'll buy a second PreSonus, assuming it should work with the iPad
and assuming I shouldn't notice issues when doing more tests. However,
I suspect hat it fits to my needs. FWIW I didn't test accuracy between
the PreSonus and the ADA8000, but by just listening, I couldn't notice
an audible issue. As already pointed out, I synced by WC. I'm using an
expensive Sommer cable and terminated with a 75 Ohm resistor and FWIW
everything used is 75 Ohm.
As you can see by [1], I didn't wait for Christmas Eve as wanted by [2].
