Hello Mr Fons!

I have lots of time! lol 

I'm curious... This application excites me based on the following theoretical layout:

Budget studio with say at least 1 strong central DAW in a control room. Other satellite rooms tht can be linked with Gig Ethernet and smaller (cheaper) platforms in those rooms for maybe recording certain instruments (drums might be a bitch even at low latencies) an feeding those channels back to the master. Effectively replacing shielded audio cables (which run into real money) for a Cat5e or Cat6 cable and gig ports either side. Gig switches and cards have become cheap, especially compared to half decent shielded pair audio cable. 

Is this reasonable as it relates to the application? 

Thnx for your efforts!
