PCI-only, and just audio interfaces (ie bridging to some audio standard format): RME: RayDAT (24), AES (32), MADI (64), MADIFX (192) Marian: A3 (24), M2 (128) There's also an ethersound interface supported. In all those cases you would need an external converter. All those solutions would cost much more than just a cheap ADAT converter or a second Multiface. >> The cheapest solution with exactly the same output characteristics: >> Get a second used Multiface I and use it as ADAT->Analogue converter >> box.
