actually, my standalone AD/DA units (Tango 24's) died and i'm
currently using a fireface 400 as the AD/DA for a digiface. it works
wonderfully, and has the benefit that it merges the audio from my
main linux system and main OS X system :)
The difference is that the FF400 has a stand alone routing mode, which
the multiface lacks.
That makes sense... There's a light on the front of the Multiface that
goes out after the firmware is loaded from the host computer. I think
until that firmware is loaded, it's more or less braindead. Probably
there is no good technical reason why RME is marketing the external
DAC/ADC units this way, other than they can.
Oh well...thanks for the suggestions on other boxes to look at from
everyone -- I'll go take a look.
