Yes - but to the PC this is a 1-lane 'PCI express' interface. So it could (should ?) work with the PCI drivers. > How do you hook the MADI card up to AD/DA?

We use the ADI-648, in some case via the RME MADI switch, and also direct connection to Digico consoles which have MADI interfaces. Compared to what you connect to the ADI-648 if you use all or most channels (i.e. up to 64 ch of high quality DA + amps, mics + AD, or both) its cost is not really a problem.
