MOUT PCI(E)424

MOUT PCI(E)424

[Fons Adriaensen]

Is the MOTU PCI(E) 424 supported by ALSA ?

It's not in the matrix on the ALSA site, so the answer is probably 'no'.
Any alternatives ? We need 24 analog outputs at 96 kHz, and a few inputs.

TIA,

RME HDSP MADI card? That can handle 32 ins and 32 outs at 96kHz, but
getting signals in and out of MADI format is expensive
(eg. RME ADI-648 plus 3 x 8-channel 96kHz ADAT interfaces).

The only other alternative AFAIK is to use 3 x 8-channel cards
(eg. M-Audio Delta 1010(LT) synced via S/PDIF), but you can probably
forget about low-latency operation with jackd if you do that - pcm_multi
and -rt kernel didn't work together with jackd last time I tried
(big xruns on SMP, lockup on UP).
