With CueMix DSP, this loop has the same near-zero latency performance as one of today&#8217;s latest digital mixers. With plug-in effects such as reverb, you can actually combine a little of the dry CueMix signal together with the processed wet signal. <\/p>\n<p>Can I use my original 2408 with the PCI-424 card included with the 24I\/O core system?<br \/>Yes, older legacy MOTU Audiowire interfaces (2408, 2408mkII, 1224, 308, 24i, 1296) are fully compatible with the PCI-424. Even the new Cuemix DSP and synchronization features can be used with legacy interfaces.<\/p>\n<p>Can I buy a 24I\/O expander to use with my PCI-324 card?<br \/>No, the 24I\/O only works with the latest generation design of the PCI-424.<\/p>\n<p>Can I still use my MTP-AV or Digital Timepiece with the PCI-424?<br \/>Yes, use the sample accurate ADAT sync connector on the PCI-424.<\/p>\n<p>What operating systems are supported by the 24I\/O?<br \/>MacOS 9, Windows 98SE, 2K, Me, XP<\/p>\n<p>Will the 24I\/O support OS X?<br \/>Yes, OS X drivers for the 24I\/O are in development. You&#8217;ll be able to download OS X drivers from the MOTU web site. <\/p>\n<p>What is the difference between a core system and an expander?<br \/>A core system includes the PCI-424 card and Audiodesk software.<\/p>\n<p>Can I plug my MOTU 828 or 896 Firewire interfaces into the PCI-424 card?<br \/>No. Like the PCI-324, the PCI-424 is an Audiowire interface only.<\/p>\n<p>Can I plug my MOTU 24i\/o directly into my computer&#8217;s firewire port like the 828 or 896?&#8230; without using the PCI424 card?<br \/>No. The 24i\/o  is an Audiowire interface only.  It will only work when connected to the PCI424 card.<\/p>\n<p>How many inputs and outputs can the 24i\/o use simultaneously?<br \/>The 24i\/o has 24 analog 24-bit\/96kHz inputs and outputs.  All inputs and outputs can be accessed simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>What are the system requirements for the PCI-424 interfaces?<\/p>\n<p>Macintosh System Requirements<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; A G3\/500 or G4 Power Macintosh or faster.<br \/>&#8211; At least 128 Mb of available RAM (a minimum of 512 Mb of total system RAM is strongly recommended).<br \/>&#8211; Mac OS 9 or higher (Watch www.motu.com for OSX drivers)<br \/>&#8211; One available PCI slot<br \/>&#8211; A large hard drive (preferably at least 20 GB) that operates at at least 7200rpm,<\/p>\n<p>PC System Requirements<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; An 800 mHz Pentium CPU or faster.<br \/>&#8211; A Pentium III or faster is recommended.<br \/>&#8211; Windows 98SE or later.<br \/>&#8211; At least 128 Mb of available RAM (a minimum of 512 Mb of total system RAM is strongly recommended).<br \/>&#8211; One available PCI slot<br \/>&#8211; A large hard drive (preferably at least 20 GB) that operates at at least 7200rpm,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[1],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[420,422],"manufacturers":[33566],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 -
